Developing a novel PPP-RTK location accuracy technique for the Android platform

This project is about developing a new technology for Android smartphones that improves their ability to determine exact locations using satellites. This is challenging due to issues like atmospheric effects and currently there’s a gap in research for this technology in the Android market. The plan is to use advanced methods that are in line with global standards to make the GPS positioning on Android phones much more precise. This could be a major breakthrough, setting new standards in the industry and making it easier for people around the world to use location-based services accurately. The goal is to create an App for Android phones that can pinpoint locations very precisely, using only the phones itself, not needing any extra devices.
