The GNSS database contains metadata and data quality statistics for continuous operating GNSS stations in Australia, its Territories and the South Pacific. GNSS stations consist of permanent geodetic quality GPS receivers, on geologically stable marks, with eight stations within Australia known as the Australian Fiducial Network (AFN) . These stations provide the geodetic framework for the spatial data infrastructure in Australia and its territories. They also provide input for the measurement of earth processes, such as crustal dynamics and sea level rise. Data from the GNSS network also contributes to the International GNSS Service . Where stations are managed by Geoscience Australia, Rinex data and quality statistics are available from this website.
