Synthesis
from AIEPOS GNSS Data and Products TCS Flyer 2025 introduces the GNSS Data and Products Thematic Core Service (TCS) under the European Plate Observing System (EPOS).
The flyer explains that GNSS constellations provide positioning and timing signals used for precise geodetic measurements and long-term surface deformation monitoring. The GNSS TCS offers access to European and regional geodetic data, metadata, and derived products, including position time series, velocity fields, and strain rate fields. It promotes standardized data integration, open data management, and best practices for station operation and data quality control.
By collaborating with EUREF and national networks, the TCS ensures interoperability and supports multidisciplinary research on Earth’s surface motion, from seismic events to tectonic plate movements. Integration with other EPOS TCS enhances Pan-European and global research capabilities in solid Earth science.
