Today large amount of geo-spatial data acquired from various sources and processed for various earth resources studies. These geo-spatial datasets for processing require secondary data in the form of geo-tagged samples, GCPs and ground based large scale maps. Now a days geotagged samples, GCPs and ground based large scale maps scenario GNSS have various measurement and positioning techniques which can be applied as per requirement in different applications. Apart from its applications in precise positioning GNSS has applications in various areas like TEC estimation & Earth quake studies, Atmospheric studies and Mobile GIS etc. The course was designed in such a way that first week lectures were dedicated to the basic information about the GNSS leading to studies carried out in different areas in second week
