Brief Biography:
Chris Rizos is a graduate of the School of Surveying, The University of New South Wales (UNSW), Sydney, Australia; obtaining a Bachelor of Surveying in 1975, and a Doctor of Philosophy in 1980 in Satellite Geodesy. Chris joined the academic staff of the School of Surveying in 1987, and was promoted to Professor in 2001. Chris is currently the Head of the School of Surveying & Spatial Information Systems, UNSW. Chris has been researching the technology and high precision applications of GPS since 1985, and has published over 400 journal and conference papers. Chris established the Satellite Navigation and Positioning Lab at UNSW in the early 1990s - Australia's premier academic R&D group for GNSS and wireless positioning technology and applications. He is a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Navigation, a Fellow of the International Association of Geodesy (IAG), and is currently Vice President of the IAG. He is a member of the International GNSS Service (IGS) Governing Board. He is also Science Manager of Program 1 "Integrated Positioning & Mapping Systems" of the Cooperative Research Centre for Spatial Information.
Interests:
Reading, cooking, travelling and networking with friends and colleagues around the world.
Current Research:
-
Carrier phase-based kinematic GPS/GNSS positioning over short, medium and long baselines: Research projects include combined GPS+Glonass data processing, single-epoch ambiguity-resolution over short ranges, multi-reference system techniques, special techniques for long-range positioning applications.
-
Development of GPS-based deformation monitoring systems: Current research is focussed on the development and testing of low-cost GPS systems for survey applications. Investigations are underway using GPS (and other surveying sensors) for building monitoring.
-
Development and testing of multi-reference receiver GPS/GNSS positioning techniques: Such techniques can improve the performance of both static and kinematic positioning. As a partner in the SydNet CORS network, investigations will be made in a realistic "open air laboratory". Real-time GPS/GNSS techniques will be the focus.
-
Innovative geodetic techniques: Research into the most effective integration of low-cost, single-frequency GPS receivers with permanent, continuously-operated GPS/GNSS networks (CGPS), as well as the integration of CGPS with Interferometric SAR techniques, guidelines for the development of multi-functional CORS networks .
-
New positioning technologies: New initiatives are to be taken in the area of indoor positioning, pseudolites, Locata, GSM-based positioning, GNSS+INS integration (and other similar sensors) strategies, GNSS+GIS and Location Based Services applications.
