Geodetic Data Analysis

Geodätische Datenanalyse

Lecturers & Examiners: Dr. Matthias Schartner
VVZ CR n/a

Abstract

The lecture provides knowledge about the analysis of geodetic time series and their modeling as stochastic processes.Besides, Fourier analysis is also discussed in detail, and basic concepts for parameter estimation, significance, and quality control are laid out.Finally, Monte Carlo simulations are discussed as well.

Objective

After completing the course, participants should have the necessary knowledge to analyze geodetic time series and decompose them into their components. They will also be able to perform hypothesis tests and apply Monte Carlo simulations.

Content

- Time series analysis (component decomposition, stochastic processes, parametric and non-parametric methods, regression models, significance tests) - Fourier analysis (discrete/continuous, sampling frequency, frequency resolution, aliasing, leakage effects, window functions) - Recapitulation of basics from statistics and probability calculations (density and distribution functions, random variables, correlation, hypothesis tests) - Monte Carlo simulations
