20. Processing Examples<br />

20.1 Introduction<br />

The distribution of the <strong>Bernese</strong> <strong>GPS</strong> <strong>Software</strong> contains processing examples using the<br />

<strong>Bernese</strong> Processing Engine (BPE), consisting of data, user scripts and four process control<br />

files (PCF). The BPE allows to automatically process data following a scheme laid out in<br />

the PCF. The purpose of these examples is to verify the installation, and to demonstrate<br />

how to solve standard processing tasks with the <strong>Bernese</strong> <strong>GPS</strong> <strong>Software</strong>. Looking through<br />

the examples, you will find many hints and ideas on how to solve specific problems with the<br />

BPE.<br />

This chapter first describes the dataset of the example campaign, informs how to run the<br />

example PCFs for verification of the software installation, and describes the PCFs for the<br />

four standard applications:<br />

• precise-point positioning (PPP.PCF).<br />

This PCF serves to generate a priori information for further processing,<br />

• double-difference processing (RNX2SNX.PCF).<br />

This is the default procedure for most cases (coordinate or troposphere results),<br />

• baseline test (BASTST.PCF).<br />

This is an example of a straightforward PCF for baseline-wise processing (e.g., ambiguity<br />

resolution),<br />

• zero-difference processing example (CLKDET.PCF).<br />

It may be used for clock estimation.<br />

At the end, we describe how to process your own data with the PCFs provided. Thus,<br />

the furnished examples open the gates to highly sophisticated, state of the art <strong>GPS</strong> data<br />

processing using one of the most powerful software packages.<br />

The examples are ready to run. All necessary files, including program option files, are<br />

provided, with the exception of the JPL DE200 ephemeris needed for the orbit integration<br />

by ORBGEN. Please follow the instructions in the ${X}/DOC/DE200.readme file in order to<br />

create this file.<br />

Each example PCF contains a general description and comments in its header, that can<br />

be read by opening the file in a text editor. The PCFs are located in ${U}/PCF. While<br />

going through the detailed description of the PCFs in this chapter, it is recommended to<br />
