Abstract

The rapid UQRG Global Ionospheric Map of Vertical Total Electron Content (GIM) are being generated by UPC-IonSAT since June 1st, 1998, as a contribution to the International GNSS Service (IGS). They are assessed and combined on a daily basis and, in this context, the UQRG GIM is typically one of the best, or the best, behaving GIM in the international community.
