SINEX_BIAS

A SINEX_BIAS file is a standardized format designed to facilitate the exchange of GNSS bias estimates among various analysis centers and users. This format is particularly essential for managing the growing variety of GNSS signals and observables, ensuring consistency and interoperability in bias data handling.

SINEX_BIAS content

Each bias entry includes a defined validity period, marked by start and end times, allowing users to understand the temporal applicability of the bias estimates.

The format supports both relative (differential) and absolute (observable-specific) bias parameters. This flexibility enables the representation of biases related to code and phase observations, accommodating various GNSS applications.
