1. ISMR QUERY TOOL: RETRIEVAL, VISUALIZATION AND ANALYSIS OF IONOSPHERIC SCINTILLATION DATA Bruno César Vani – brunovani22@gmail.com Milton Hirokazu Shimabukuro – miltonhs@fct.unesp.br João Francisco Galera Monico – galera@fct.unesp.br UNESPGEGE

2. CIGALA/CALIBRA Network Stations equipped with GNSS receivers PolaRxS- PRO, manufactured by Septentrio, capable of collecting data up to 100 hz. Such data may produce specific indices of ionosphere each minute. Five new stations will be installed for the CALIBRA Project.

3. ISMR Data

4. Amount of measurements Stations generates IS monitoring records for each minute Scintillation indices TEC indices Multifrequency Measurements are generated for each GNSS satellite tracked by receivers Near 10mi records per day Visualization 1440 epochs of measurements per day Each measurement has up to 60 parameters

5. ISMR Query Tool Open Source Packages:

6. 2013 / January – v. 3.0

7. Usage of ISMR Query Tool

8. 1. Check network data availability at the home page

9. 2. Select a date/time interval

10. 3. Select station(s), filters, fields, output options and plot

11. 4. Output image will be processed and displayed

12. Example 1 Specific analysis for Station SJCE

13. 1. All satellites from station SJCE this year

14. 2. Restrict the interval for the higest peak and plot it again

15. 3. Identify the satellites

16. 4. Compare with other station

17. Example 2 GPS - week of the solar flare of March, 08th 2012

18. 1. Query the week

19. 2. Displaying only SJC stations

20. 3.Station SJCI - S4 and sigma-phi

21. 4. Station SJCI – identify the most affected satellites

22. 5. Station SJCI – displaying just some few satellites

23. 6. Station SJCI – identify the most affected time of the day

24. Other features

25. IPP Map (only version 2.0)

26. RINEX

27. Limitations Response time: –Varies according to the amount of data in the result set –For example, a full year query can never be displayed –Use filters! Browser: –Firefox or Chrome are recommended browsers

28. Final remarks Capability of identifying high ionospheric scintillation periods in the region of the network Specific analysis which support: –development of mitigation techniques –building of prediction models –substantiation of new hypothesis about ionospheric scintillation Researches can follow the state of the ionospheric indexes

29. Next Steps Positioning errors processing –60 min. data PPP –20 min. data PPP –... Visual Analytics –Classification / Clustering –Quick search through metadata
