EPOS-GNSS: Connecting Earth Sciences Through Data
Access, explore, and share GNSS data, metadata, and products supporting Solid Earth Science across Europe.
What is EPOS
The European Plate Observing System (EPOS) is a pan-European distributed research infrastructure that integrates data, tools, and services for studying the solid Earth. The backbone of EPOS are Thematic Core Services (TCS), which cover the different domains of the solid Earth science.
The European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) is the dedicated European legal form for running Research Infrastructures on a non-economic basis. EPOS was officially granted ERIC status by the European Commission on October 30, 2018, securing legal personality and operational flexibility across the EU.
TCS GNSS Data and Products
The mission of the GNSS Thematic Core Service (TCS) is to provide, through EPOS, access to GNSS data, metadata, products, and software supporting research in the Solid Earth Sciences.
- Facilitate access to validated GNSS data, metadata, and related products
- Coordinate the archiving of GNSS data, metadata, and derived products
- Promote best practices for GNSS station operation, quality control, and data management
- Maintain and distribute open-source software for GNSS data discovery
- Develop and maintain GNSS-derived data products
These efforts are realised in close collaboration with EUREF community (https://www.euref.eu)
Connecting Europe through GNSS Science
Open Source Platform — GLASS
The EPOS GNSS Thematic Core Service has developed an open-source platform called GLASS, designed to store and disseminate GNSS data, metadata and products from stations operating across Europe. Read more on the link below:
GNSS Portals
The EPOS-GNSS Thematic Core Service offers four core portals that allow users to access, GNSS data, metadata and products
GNSS Products Portal
Data Gateway Portal
M3G Portal
Data Quality Monitoring Portal
