[SGD01-09] Release of RINEX pre-processing software RINGO
Keywords:GNSS, RINEX, pre-processing software
We have developed and released a new multi-GNSS data pre-processing software “RINGO” that provides various features including editing, quality checking, clock jump correction, higher order ionosphere correction, conversion of BINEX and RTCM files, and an interactive viewer for RINEX files.
The recent increase in number of GNSS satellites has made GNSS data more complex; however, the software available to pre-process them is very limited. RINGO is a command line tool capable of handling multi-GNSS data including GPS, QZSS, GLONASS, Galileo, and other systems in RINEX 2.xx, 3.xx, and 4.00 formats, which allows users to easily manage the multi-GNSS data observed at continuously operating reference stations.
We present an overview for each RINGO feature. The results of the quality check feature were compared with results estimated by other existing software packages. Our results agreed well with those of the TEQC software. With RINGO, users can easily pre-process multi-GNSS data without combining multiple tools, and the software will contribute to the popularization of the latest RINEX format.
The RINGO software is available on GSI’s website. Any comments as well as bug reports on the software are welcome.
