    Geodesy Geodesy, jee OD uh see, is a science that seeks to determine the size, shape, and gravitational field of the earth. It also monitors variations over time in the earth's rotation, size, and topography. Geodesists use various surveying techniques to measure the distances and directions between points on, under, or above the earth's surface. They calculate the elevation, latitude, and longitude of thousands of places on earth. One major use of geodetic data is the making of a wide variety of maps, from navigational charts to topographical maps.

    Geodesy
    Geodesy and geophysics are concerned mostly with what is going on under our feet, so it may seem ironic that these two disciplines are advanced by looking up at the stars! VLBI techniques, which were originally developed for studying radio objects in the universe can, in effect, be turned upside down to do very precise studies of the Earth. Geodetic studies help aid in the use of GPS and other navigational equipment. By simultaneously collecting data from a single radio source via a worldwide array of radio telescopes, the relative time-of-arrival of signals from that source to each telescope can be determined to within a few picoseconds (3 picoseconds = 1 mm of light travel time). By observing many radio sources spread widely over the sky over a period of 24 hours, data are collected that allow the ultra-precise measurements of the Earth and its orientation in space. The geodetic VLBI techniques in use at Haystack originated more than three decades ago at the Observatory, which continues to lead the way in new developments and improved accuracy in these important research methods.
    Geodetic VLBI in Action
    Among the important applications of geodetic VLBI are:

    Geodesy Campaign Mosaic
    This mosaic was assembled from Wide Angle red images (primarily those acquired in May-June 1999) from the Mars Orbiter Camera. The mosaic has been produced at 64 and 256 pixels/degree. In the initial release, all quadrangles were complete except for the polar regions (MC-01 and MC-30) and areas on quads MC-24 through MC-29 south of 60S. The south polar coverage was completed in February 2002 (mapping cycle E13) and the polar quads updated in August 2004. The band of latitude between 60S and 65S still needs to be reprocessed. here For access to the mosaic, see the table below, or click on a region of interest in the image map at the bottom of the page.

    The Site of James R. Clynch
    I am placing on this site a large amount of material generated over the years as a scientist and teacher. The material is in the areas of GPS, Geodesy, and Geophysics (mainly about radio propagation along ground to satellite paths).
    Technical Notes

    I have edited and uploaded about 30 short technical notes. They are divided into sections: Geodesy, Maps, GPS, Atmosphere, Time, Mathematics, and General. Little mathematics is needed to understand most topics. A few require vectors and calculus. The more technical notes are yet to be uploaded.
    Software.

    I have provided about 500 modules in Fortran , which was the major language I used in scientific studies. While this may be out of date, it may serve as template for some. The majority of the geodesy modules, and some others were converted to Matlab. This language needs an runtime program that is expensive, but usually discounted for educational institutions. I have also converted a small number of geodesy modules to JavaScript. These were used in an online interactive module.

    The Crustal Dynamics Data Information System (CDDIS) supports data archiving and distribution activities for the space geodesy and geodynamics community. The main objectives of the system are to store space geodesy and geodynamics related data products in a central data bank, to maintain information about the archival of these data, and to disseminate these data and information in a timely manner to NASA investigators and cooperating institutions. The CDDIS staff and computer facility are located at NASA GSFC in Greenbelt, MD and is part of the Solar System Exploration Division within the Sciences and Exploration Directorate The following topics of interest are available from the CDDIS web site: A Frequently Asked Questions ( FAQ ) page is available with helpful information about accessing the CDDIS data archive.

    Charting and Geodesy
    Nearly 80 percent of U.S. overseas trade by volume travels into and out of the country through our nation’s nearly 400 ports. Waterborne cargo alone contributes more than $742 billion to the U.S. Gross Domestic Product and is responsible for more than 13 million jobs. Ensuring that the maritime commerce system is able to operate requires detailed, accurate and up-to-date maps and charts of U.S. waterways. President Thomas Jefferson understood the value of safe, efficient marine transportation when he created the nation’s first scientific agency, the Survey of the Coast in 1807. The Survey, now known as the Office of Coast Survey   is an integral part of NOAA’s overall mission to support the nation's commerce with information for safe, efficient and environmentally sound transportation. The Office of Coast Survey works closely with NOAA’s Office of Marine and Aviation Operations to chart the 3.4 million square nautical miles in the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone.

The first product is an XML Schema definition for GPS/GNSS site metadata (i.e., "Site Logs"), as a possible alternative to current "human readable" approaches. We all know and have experienced the difficulty in achieving accurate and timely site metadata, and that site metadata are the most basic backbone elements on which subsequent data, data products, and data interpretations rely. This is why we have tackled this aspect first. The XML Site Logs Schema definition is open for public review and comment at http://sopac.ucsd.edu/projects/xml/

    The broad objective of the geodesy group is to foster the availability of the variety of geodetic data collected in Southern California and the integrated use of these observations, in conjunction with other relevant data (e.g., seismic or geologic information), to address the spectrum of deformation processes which affect this region. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, rapid earthquake response, transient deformation, long-term strain accumulation, and nontectonic effects, which appear in geodetic data. Proposed work may overlap with one or more focus areas, such as Crustal Deformation Modeling (CDM)
    The following are research strategies aimed at meeting the broad objective:
    • Increase the usability of high-rate GPS observations by developing community-accessible tools for processing these data. Such tools can address different goals including immediate response to major earthquakes (for which rapid availability of solutions is a priority) or detailed deformation analysis (for which the highest accuracy solutions are needed) (

Of these requirements, a maximum number of three graduate-level courses can be waived based on previous knowledge or experience. Waived courses cannot be used to reduce the Graduate School required minimum number of credit hours that students must complete.
    • In Plan A, the Department also requires the completion of one course from Group I (Table 1) . The minimum required elective courses for Plan B are also listed by specialization.
    • Geodetic Science or Surveying courses at the 600 or 700 level may be substituted for Group II (Table 2) courses with the approval of the student's adviser.
    • The degree requirements may be modified to suit a particular student's need through a written petition approved by the Graduate Studies Committee.
    • No course taken outside the Graduate School (e.g., continuing education) can be used for credit toward any graduate degree or toward the graduate grade point average.
