eSWua IONORING tool: Nowcasting TEC maps over Italy

Last modified at Sep 4th, 2023, 15:00 GMT

Description

IONORING (IONOspheric RING) [1] is a tool capable to provide the real-time monitoring and modeling of the ionospheric Total Electron Content (TEC) over Italy in the latitudinal and longitudinal ranges of 35°N–48°N and 5°E–20°E, respectively. IONORING exploits the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data acquired by the RING (Rete Integrata Nazionale GNSS: http://ring.gm.ingv.it/) network managed by the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV). The system provides TEC real-time maps with a very fine spatial resolution (0.1° latitude x 0.1° longitude), with a refresh time of 10 min and a typical latency below the minute.
