With more and more of our daily life depending on space technology it is critically important to have an accurate and reliable representation of Earth’s geospace environment.

The ionosphere is a particularly important part because of the detrimental impact it can have on many technical infrastructures, such as satellite communications and positioning systems.

 

Any technique that uses a probing signal traveling through this region needs to account for the retarding and refractive effect that the ionosphere imposes on the signal. Accurate remote sensing of Earth parameters from space depends on such signals, as well as satellite navigation, telecommunication, and the GNSS technology. Predicting the real-time ionosphere has been a special focus of recent research and will be a central part of the workshop. Assimilation of ground and space measurements into models are helping to achieve this goal and several presentations at the workshop are expected to discuss and report on this topic. The objective of this two-week training and capacity building workshop is to teach attendees the basics of ionospheric monitoring and modelling and familiarize the students with IRI and NeQuick ionospheric models and with the most important online data bases of ionospheric ground and space data.
