A new strategy and method was applied by the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory (SHAO) Analysis Center (AC) of the international GNSS Monitoring and Assessment Service (iGMAS) for generating 6-hourly and 1-hourly GNSS products, which mainly include the American Global Positioning System (GPS), the Russian Global\u2019naya Navigatsionnaya Sputnikova Sistema (GLONASS), the European Union\u2019s Galileo, and the Chinese BeiDou navigation satellite system (BDS). The 6-hourly and 1-hourly GNSS orbit and clock ultra-rapid products included a 24-h observation session which is determined by 24-h observation data from global tracking stations, and a 24-h prediction session which is predicted from the observation session. The accuracy of the 1-hourly orbit product improved about 1%, 31%, 13%, 11%, 23%, and 9% for the observation session and 18%, 43%, 45%, 34%, 53%, and 15% for the prediction session of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BDS Medium Earth Orbit (MEO), Inclined Geosynchronous Orbit (IGSO), and GEO orbit, when compared with reference products with high accuracy from the International GNSS service (IGS).The precision of the 1-hourly clock products can also be seen better than the 6-hourly clock products. The accuracy and precision of the 6-hourly and 1-hourly orbit and clock verify the availability and reliability of the hourly ultra-rapid products, which can be used for real-time or near-real-time applications, and show encouraging prospects.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13051022","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,8]],"date-time":"2021-03-08T12:12:18Z","timestamp":1615205538000},"page":"1022","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Accuracy Analysis of GNSS Hourly Ultra-Rapid Orbit and Clock Products from SHAO AC of iGMAS"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9298-5801","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Qinming","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Shanghai Astronomical Observatory, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 80 Nandan Road, Shanghai 200030, China"}]},{"given":"Shuli","family":"Song","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shanghai Astronomical Observatory, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 80 Nandan Road, Shanghai 200030, China"}]},{"given":"Weili","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shanghai Astronomical Observatory, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 80 Nandan Road, Shanghai 200030, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"213","article-title":"The iGMAS Combined Products and the Analysis of Their Consistency","volume":"342","author":"Cai","year":"2015","journal-title":"China Satell.
