Recent advances in technology have contributed to the deployment of a “de-facto” large GNSS receiver array based on affordable smart devices that are easy to find in the consumer market (dual band smartphones, raw GNSS data recording, new sensors). Crowdsourced GNSS Big Data repositories provide a unique opportunity to apply innovative Machine Learning techniques for the identification of singularities and correlations, across GNSS science disciplines (e.g. space weather, water vapour measurement, geo-hazard detection). The objective of this activity is to implement a unique, publicly available repository of crowdsourced GNSS data and products designed for exploitation through ML techniques of relevant GNSS science Use Cases.
