The IGS operates a network of GNSS stations around the world, which continuously collect data from GNSS satellites such as GPS (Global Positioning System) and GLONASS (Global Navigation Satellite System). The data collected by these stations is used to generate precise orbit and clock solutions for GNSS satellites, as well as precise coordinates for GNSS stations. The IGS provides access to this data and products through its official website (https://www.igs.org/), and makes them available to users for a variety of purposes, including navigation, surveying, mapping, geodesy, and scientific research. The IGS also provides a platform for collaboration among GNSS researchers, users, and organizations from around the world. Overall, the IGS plays an important role in advancing the field of GNSS by providing...
