Raw GNSS data collected using smartphones and low-cost receiver under optimal and sub-optimal conditions.

The miniaturisation and decrease of price are amongst the main current trends in the area of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) receivers. Besides standalone receivers also receivers incorporated into Android devices can provide raw GNSS measurements thus enabling much wider options, formerly restricted to devices of much higher price. The article describes two datasets.

Static Positioning under Tree Canopy Using Low-Cost GNSS Receivers and Adapted RTKLIB Software.

The decrease in costs and dimensions of GNSS receivers has enabled their adoption for a very wide range of users. Formerly mediocre positioning performance is benefiting from recent technology advances, namely the adoption of multi-constellation, multi-frequency receivers. In our study, we evaluate signal characteristics and horizontal accuracies achievable with two low-cost receivers-a Google Pixel 5 smartphone and a u-Blox ZED F9P standalone receiver.
