Abstract
- The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) develops JPL-GIM, a software for generating global ionospheric maps (GIMs) of total electron content (TEC) using measurements from multiple Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) constellations. Within this overview paper, we delve into the current state and the most recent enhancements of JPL-GIM. An adaptable Kalman filter provides maps with user-defined temporal and spatial resolutions, while concurrently delivering essential covariance data for uncertainty assessment. Furthermore, multiple shell models offer a versatile framework to balance accuracy and computational efficiency. We present the five operational JPL GIM products (JPLG, JPRG, JPLI, JPLD, JPRT), highlighting JPLG and JPRG, our products routinely delivered to the International GNSS Service (IGS), and introduce a new near-real-time product (JPRT). As an added demonstration of JPL-GIM’s capabilities, we present a very-high-resolution (2-minute, multi-GNSS, 1000-station) configuration to showcase JPL-GIM’s ability to resolve long-lasting effects of the 2022 Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai eruption. Validations using independent datasets confirm the accurate reproduction of ionospheric variations across all latitudinal bands. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
