Abstract

This paper presents the features of the MONITOR project. This project initiated by ESA / ESTEC aims to increase the knowledge of the ionospheric effects and its impact on GNSS systems during active periods of solar activity. It includes the deployment of a set of GNSS-based ionospheric monitoring receivers worldwide distributed, the development of specific analysis software tools some of them integrated on a common platform, others distributed providing products routinely and a measurement campaign which will last beyond the peak of the current solar cycle.
