Vienna mapping functions in VLBI analyses
Abstract
In the past few years, numerical weather models (NWM) have been investigated to improve mapping functions which are used for tropospheric delay modeling in VLBI and GPS data analyses. The Vienna Mapping Functions VMF are based on direct raytracing through NWM, and so they are able to exploit the full information provided in the NWM. On the other hand, the Isobaric Mapping Functions IMF are using intermediate parameters calculated from the NWM. In this study, pressure level data from ECMWF (European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts) are applied to determine the coefficients of the VMF and the IMF. Used for the analyses of IVS‐R1 and IVS‐R4 VLBI sessions, both mapping functions improve the repeatability of baseline lengths (by ∼10% for IVS‐R1 and ∼5% for IVS‐R4) compared to the Niell Mapping Functions NMF.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
