GPS_timeseries_auto_fitting

This is a series of python scripts for processing GPS time series data, fitting velocities and plotting using plotly

requirements:

python, plotly, numpy, pandas

The original GPS time series data is stored under time_series_data. Each file is a station (.txt).

And below is the format of the data. The columns are:

date (year+day of year) longitude (WGS84) latitude (WGS84) vertical (ellipsoid height)
2016306 121.59938566 25.11217164 437.420
2016307 121.59938566 25.11217161 437.427
2016308 121.59938564 25.11217162 437.440
2016309 121.59938570 25.11217161 437.428
2016310 121.59938568 25.11217160 437.432

Below is the intended steps (order) to run the scripts:

1. process_raw_and_export_csv.py

This process data in each station and convert lon lat time series to local east west components (vertical is unchanged).

This also create a new time (unit:year, with digits). This is for plotting time series.

The new information are then added to the dataframe and later exported under the folder: processed_timeseries as .csv files

Note that the format for E,N,V is in mm as opposed to the original data being in meters.

2. auto_plot_timeseries.py

This loops through the newly created csv files and plot the time series (.html files) under folder: timeseries_graphs.

3. auto_fit_velocity.py

This reads the .csv files created in step 1 and fits the velocities. Just before fitting, the user will be prompted to provide a station as reference station (i.e. that station will be completely stationary in the fitted result). If no desired ref station (i.e. use the time series as is), type in 'None'. The referencing step will be skipped. New plotted time series with fitted velocities are then stored under folder: fitted_timeseries_graphs_ref_(ref_site_name). This script also exported the velocity data as a csv file named: fitted_velocity_ref_(ref_site_name).csv

Here is the reference station:

Here is an example of a regular station:
