Monitoring crustal deformations in Carpathian fold system

The main territory of Ukraine is located on stable Eastern European platform but some parts are also in the Mediterranean zone: Carpathian fold system and Foldedbrylova Building Mountain Crimea. These tectonic structures are characterized by seismicity. Monitoring such seismic active regions is great interest for geodynamic study. Nowadays, monitoring of these regions is more available with development and distribution of GNSS technology. The Department of Geodesy and Astronomy of Lviv Polytechnic National University operate several reference GNSS stations in Carpathian region.

Toward geodynamic studies and GNSS CORS measurements: West Ukrainian GNSS network data processing using Bernese v5.2 software

Presented study is organized to enhance the services provided by number of GNSS stations in Western Ukrainian region, which are mainly a network of Continuously Operated Reference Stations (CORS) established in different years by different institutions, and improve the efficiency of the GNSS data usage. The main objective of the study is to compute CORS velocities, using available three years’ data, establish an automated procedure of further data computation.
