Advanced Modeling of the Ionosphere and Upper Atmosphere

Abstract

This report presents final results of a 2-year AFRL-sponsored project whose objective was to develop advanced modeling and data assimilation capabilities for the ionosphere and upper atmosphere. In the course of this project Fusion Numerics developed a new global three-dimensional numerical model of the ionosphere, novel ionospheric data assimilation software and methodology, and an infrastructure for obtaining and managing IGS reference station data for the system.
