GPS data collection started at Terra Nova Bay Station (Antarctica) since the 1988-89 in the framework of the Italian Antarctic Research Program (PNRA). During the past expeditions a number of tests of GPS kinematic were made. The GPS data were collected under various operational conditions and for different targets, such as glacier movements monitoring, kinematic GPS controlled aerophotogrammetry, execution of long range Antarctic traverses, ship navigation tracking control, etc. Those GPS kinematic applications showed peculiar aspects by the point of view of data processing, due to ionospheric disturbances and satellite configuration at high latitude. Here are described the different kinematic GPS experiences and are presented some results.

Abstract
GPS data collection started at Terra Nova Bay Station (Antarctica) since the 1988-89 in the framework of the Italian Antarctic Research Program (PNRA). During the past expeditions a number of tests of GPS kinematic were made. The GPS data were collected under various operational conditions and for different targets, such as glacier movements monitoring, kinematic GPS controlled aerophotogrammetry, execution of long range Antarctic traverses, ship navigation tracking control, etc. Those GPS kinematic applications showed peculiar aspects by the point of view of data processing, due to ionospheric disturbances and satellite configuration at high latitude. Here are described the different kinematic GPS experiences and are presented some results.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
