Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) have drawn the attention of scientists all over the world for wide-ranging earth monitoring and investigatory applications. At the end of 2020, there are several fully global operational satellite navigation systems, such as the Chinese BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS), European Galileo, Russian GLONASS and American GPS. Furthermore, many other regional GNSS systems will be available in the next few years, such as the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS/NavIC), the Japanese Quasi‑Zenith Satellite System (QZSS), and the Regional South Korean Positioning System (KPS), which will hold massive potential for applications in the scientific community. For example, the ground-based and space-borne GNSS receivers can measure the ionospheric total electron content (TEC) that routinely monitors the global ionospheric climate and weather (GNSS-Ionosphere). The dense TEC observations record regional ionospheric perturbations due to earthquakes/tsunamis, or geomagnetic storms, typhoon and eclipses. The GNSS Reflectometry (GNSS-R) from a low Earth-orbiting satellite can retrieve environmental parameters over sea ice, land and ocean.
GNSSs are today a major technique in the field of earth observations. With continuous improvements and developments in terms of performance, availability, modernization and hybridizing, GNSSs will inevitably become involved in more future applications.
