Outline of Final Research Achievements

We tried to develop a technology for estimation of stand information by analysis of GNSS signal segmentation.
LiDAR data and GNSS reception data were obtained at Ashiu Research Forest and Wakayama Research Forest, Field Science Education and Research Center, Kyoto University.
While we cannot find any significant relationship between them because of difference of data obtained period, we find that SIP has high correlation to stand information, and that success probability of GNSS positioning, positional accuracy, and probability of obtaining FIX solutions will increase by using not only GPS but also GLONASS, Galileo, and Beidou.
