Measuring Soil Moisture With GPS Multipath and Open Source Software?
11-19, 16:10–16:15 (Pacific/Auckland), WG403

A summary of the GNSS-IR method and a discussion on the deployment of a low-cost, Raspberry Pi-based GNSS-IR system for field-scale soil moisture monitoring.


Can multipath be useful? An emerging measurement technique known as "GNSS Interferometric Reflectometry" turns this common source of positioning error into an environmental sensor.
