Abstract:
This paper describes the displacement pattern of Obajana and environs. Displacement is the shift recorded in the easting, northing and zenith direction of a point of observation. The aim of this study was to analyze the displacement pattern in the 3 directions. A Hi-Target GNSS V30 receiver was used on static mode to acquire satellite signal of receiver locations which of course were the observation stations. The duration for at every observation station was averagely 60 minutes. The observations were carried out in 3 months interval for 1 year. The raw GNSS data was downloaded and further converted into a RINEX data for compatibility analysis in online Precise Point Positioning (PPP) solutions. The RINEX data were uploaded to CSRS-PPP, a Canadian online PPP solution for post-processing of the GNSS results. After this, the peak horizontal displacement formula was used to determine the horizontal displacement. The height differencing method was used to determine the vertical displacement values. Analysis were done with graphs and charts for easy understanding. The results were actually in centimeter and millimeter range. It is recommended the PPP solutions can be reliable in terms of geodetic monitoring because of its weighted least square algorithm.
