dc.description.abstractInvestigation of the variability of total electron content (TEC) is one of the most important parameters of the observation and monitoring of space weather, which is the main cause of signal disturbance in space-based communication, positioning, and navigation systems. TEC is defined as the total number of electrons on a ray path. The Global Positioning System (GPS) provides a cost-effective solution for the estimation of TEC. Due to various physical and operational disturbances, TEC may have temporal and spatial domain gaps. Global ionospheric maps (GIMs) provide worldwide TEC with 1-to 2-h temporal resolution and 2:5 degrees x 5 degrees spatial resolution in latitude and longitude, respectively. The GIM-TEC with the highest possible accuracy can be obtained 10 days after the recording of the signals. Therefore, a high-resolution and accurate interpolation of TEC is necessary to image and monitor the regional distribution of TEC in near-real time. In this study, a novel spatiotemporal interpolation algorithm with automatic gridding is developed for 2-D TEC imaging by data fusion of GPS-TEC and GIM-TEC. The algorithm automatically implements optimum spatial resolution and desired temporal resolution with universal kriging with linear trend for midlatitude regions and ordinary kriging for other regions. The theoretical semivariogram function is estimated from GPS network data using a Matern family, whose parameters are determined with a particle swarm optimization algorithm. The developed algorithm is applied to the Turkish National Permanent GPS Network (TNPGN-Active), a dense midlatitude GPS network. For the first time in the literature, high spatial resolution TEC maps are obtained between May 2009 and May 2012 with a 2.5min temporal update period. These TEC maps will be used to investigate the spatiotemporal variability of the ionosphere over the diurnal and annual trend structure, including seasonal anomalies and geomagnetic and seismic disturbances over ionosphere.
