Horizontal velocity field derived from EPN and ASG-EUPOS satellite data on the example of south-western part of Poland
PublicationPresently the determination of the velocity field in the global reference frame is possible by using different space techniques and dense terrestrial networks from global to local and regional scales. However, the reliability of such determinations is strongly limited by the restricted number of unmodeled effects. Some of them are periodic (atmospheric or hydrological effects), some instantaneous (natural or man-made seismicity)...
