FIELD: measuring.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of space geodesy, in particular, to methods for building a planetary-scale Global Space Geodetic Network. The substance of the proposed method is as follows. The template of the model of the Global Space Geodetic Network is an icosahedron. The Global Space Geodetic Network is built based on the results of the search, comparison, and consecutive selection of the nearest points – centres of existing and live observation stations of global navigation satellite systems – displayed in a spherical world map, and reference points of the template of the model of the Global Space Geodetic Network. The network with a set density is thickened through operations of bisection and trisection of the faces of the icosahedron transferred to the sphere, wherein the vertices of the new triangles form a regular network.
EFFECT: high-precision geodetic basis on a planetary scale is obtained.
