The Bernese GNSS Software is a high precision scientific multi-GNSS data processing software developed at the Astronomical Institute of the University of Bern (AIUB). FODITS (Finding Outliers and Discontinuities In Time Series) is one of the Bernese GNSS Software (Dach et al., 2015) programs released in version 5.2. The program enables the automatic analysis of the coordinate time series, including automatic detection of discontinuities, velocity changes, periodic events, and outliers, as well as. The Bernese GPS software is a high performance, high accuracy, and highly flexible reference GPS/GLONASS post-processing package. State of the art modeling, detailed control over all relevant processing options, performant automatization tools, the adherence to up to date internationally adopted standards, and the inherent flexibility due to a highly modular design are characteristics of the. The Bernese 8 GNSS software is a scientific, high-precision, multi-GNSS data processing software developed at the Astronomical Institute of the University of Bern. Data processing with version 5.0.
The Bernese GNSS Software is the backbone for all activities of the satellite geodesy research group at AIUB: high performance processing of measurements, obtained by GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) and SLR (Satellite Laser Ranging), precise orbit determination for Low Earth Orbiting satellites (LEOs), and even gravity field determination. The software is also applied in the context of operational processing schemes, e.g., in the context of CODE (Center for Orbit Determination in Europe) since more than 20 years.
The Bernese GNSS Software is a high performance, high accuracy GNSS and SLR post-processing software package for the space-geodetic community. It is supported, maintained, and regularly updated by AIUB, considering the latest recommendations and models (e.g., IERS Conventions and IGS processing conventions) as well as technological advancements (e.g., new satellite systems and observables), offering the user a maximum of flexibility in customizing processing strategies and options. The flyer provides a more detailed insight.
The software package comes with a user-friendly interface, an online help system, and an comprehensive user manual:

The so-called Bernese Processing Engine (BPE) allows for automated processing, which is especially useful for large network processing and reprocessing efforts. For numerous standard applications ready-to-use examples exist. Nowadays the Bernese GNSS Software consists of more than 100 programs and about 1300 modules and subroutines, is platform-independent, and is used by some hundred customers throughout the world.
The latest version, released to the user community is Version 5.2, published in December 2012. It is regularly maintained with intermediate releases containing bugfixes, improvements, model updates, and adaptions to recent developments in the GNSS data processing.
