SW is the integrated water vapor along single GPS ray paths PWV is the average (estimate) of all SW observations in a cone scaled
to zenith Simultaneous observations along 8-12 GPS ray paths GPS and WVR sensed SW and PWV agree to ~1.5 mm rms

Conclusions
• 41 GPS Stations in IHOP_2002 Region
• Homestead station had high percentage of data availability
• PW (30 min), SW (2 min), and Tomography Solutions Available
• All GPS data are processed. PW data are available at JOSS web site. If someone is interested in SW and/or tomography data, they should contact me directly ([email protected]).
