Abstract
A method for providing GNSS-relevant route information. The method includes: a) receiving GNSS raw data relating to at least one GNSS satellite signal; b) evaluating the GNSS raw data; c) forming at least one interference indicator for describing at least one interfering influence on the GNSS reception in the area of a geographic position and/or for a route section, taking into account the evaluated GNSS raw data relating to the area or the route section; and d) storing the at least one interference indicator with at least one item of geographic information on the area of the geographic position or the route section.
Claims9
A method for updating an availability map providing GNSS-relevant route information, comprising the following steps:
- a) receiving GNSS raw data relating to at least one GNSS satellite signal;
- b) evaluating the GNSS raw data;
- c) forming at least one interference indicator for describing at least one interfering influence on the GNSS reception in an area of a geographic position and/or for a route section, taking into account the evaluated GNSS raw data relating to the area of the geographic position or the route section;
- d) storing the at least one interference indicator with at least one item of geographic information on the area of the geographic position or on the route section;
- and
- e) updating the availability map based on the at least one interference indicator and the at least one item of geographic information.
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium on which is stored a computer program for updating an availability map providing GNSS-relevant route information, the computer program, when executed by a computer, causing the computer to perform the following steps:
- a) receiving GNSS raw data relating to at least one GNSS satellite signal;
- b) evaluating the GNSS raw data;
- c) forming at least one interference indicator for describing at least one interfering influence on the GNSS reception in an area of a geographic position and/or for a route section, taking into account the evaluated GNSS raw data relating to the area of the geographic position or the route section;
- d) storing the at least one interference indicator with at least one item of geographic information on the area of the geographic position or on the route section;
- and
- e) updating the availability map based on the at least one interference indicator and the at least one item of geographic information.
A system configured to update an availability map providing GNSS-relevant route information, the system configured to:
- a) receive GNSS raw data relating to at least one GNSS satellite signal;
- b) evaluate the GNSS raw data;
- c) form at least one interference indicator for describing at least one interfering influence on the GNSS reception in an area of a geographic position and/or for a route section, taking into account the evaluated GNSS raw data relating to the area of the geographic position or the route section;
- d) store the at least one interference indicator with at least one item of geographic information on the area of the geographic position or on the route section;
- and
- e) update the availability map based on the at least one interference indicator and the at least one item of geographic information.
