Bernese GPS Software Version 5.0 - Bernese GNSS Software

21.3 Summary of the Bernese GPS Software Main Programs
DOC contains examples for Bernese file types, readme files, and the entire
software documentation.
SCRIPT contains basic command files necessary for the automated processing
using the BPE.
PCF contains examples of process control files for the BPE (see Chapter 19
and 20).
OPT contains directories with the panels for the example PCF files in the
directory PCF. These panels are copied automatically to the corresponding
user directories (${U}/OPT or %U%\OPT\).
USERSCPT contains the BPE user scripts of the example PCF files in the directory
PCF. These scripts are copied automatically to the corresponding user
directories (${U}/SCRIPT or %U%\SCRIPT\).
The directories ${X}/PAN, ${X}/PCF, ${X}/OPT, and ${X}/USERSCPT are copied to the user
area during the installation of the user environment (see Chapter 23).
Usually, no changes are necessary in the program environment. Exceptions are files in
${X}/GEN that may be updated from http://www.aiub.unibe.ch/download/BSWUSER50/
GEN.
On UNIX systems the directories ${XG}, ${XQ}, and ${X}/EXE have to be included in the
execution path.
Predefined campaign-specific directories ${P} (UNIX) or freely definable campaign directories
(UNIX, Windows) and the user-specific directory ${U} are not included in Figure 21.1.
The data disk(s) and the user environment may be completely separated from the disk
containing the Bernese programs.
21.3 Summary of the Bernese GPS Software Main Programs
The Bernese GPS Software Version 5.0 contains nearly 100 programs which are grouped
logically into six parts represented as items in the menu bar of the menu program:
• ”Menu>RINEX”: The Transfer Part includes all programs related to the transfer of
RINEX files (observations, navigation messages, meteorological files, clock files) into
Bernese format or vice versa, and to manipulate RINEX files such as cutting to a
specific time window or concatenation of files. RINEX tools allow to extract header
information, generate statistical information, or preprocess observations at the RINEX
level.
• ”Menu>Orbits/EOP”: The Orbit Part contains all programs related to satellite orbits and
Earth orientation parameters (EOPs). This includes the generation of an internal
orbit representation (so-called standard orbit) starting from precise ephemerides or
broadcast information, update orbit information, creation of precise orbit files, concatenation
of precise files, comparison of orbits, conversion of EOP information from
IERS format to Bernese format, and extraction of pole information.
• ”Menu>Processing”: The Processing Part contains the main processing programs. This
includes code pre-processing and receiver synchronization (program CODSPP), generation
of baseline files (program SNGDIF), dual frequency phase pre-processing (program
MAUPRP), parameter estimation based on GPS and/or GLONASS observations
