Ground-Based GPS Altimetry: The Crater-Lake Experiment and Coastal Monitoring
Treuhaft RN, Chao Y, Lowe ST, Smith MA, Zuffada C. 2008. Ground-Based GPS Altimetry: The Crater-Lake Experiment and Coastal Monitoring
A GPS altimetric experiment from a cliff over Crater lake in Oregon shows cm-level determination of the lake surface height. This experiment serves to test the limiting accuracy of air- and spaceborne GPS altimetric remote sensing. It also suggests the feasibility of accurate, ground-based GPS altimetric coastal monitoring, which is difficult for spaceborne techniques.
