The effect of absolute humidity on GPS-positioning accuracy

Objective. Investigate the effect of absolute humidity on the GPS accuracy for different durations of observation. Methods. The GPS observations with different durations over spring-autumn period at 17 permanent stations in France and 8 stations in Switzerland were chosen for initial data. These observations used four GPS networks with a different number of points (from 5 to 8) and lengths of vectors (average length varied from 5.1 to 48.6 km).
