"""Module for the JPL GPS data products.

Supports ROTI data produced at JPL from International
GNSS Service Total Electron Content (TEC)

The rate of TEC index (ROTI) characterizes TEC fluctuations observed along
receiver-to-satellite line of sight links over a 5-minute interval.
The measurement is obtained by processing GNSS dual-frequency phase data and
computing the standard deviation of the rate of TEC change over that interval
after removing its background variation trend.

ROTI data are provided as global maps using a 2.5 x 5 degree (geographic
latitude x longitude) grid. The median ROTI value is calculated in each bin.
GNSS data contributing to the ROTI computation are primarily collected from
the global network of International GNSS Service and the regional network of
Continuous Operating Reference Station (CORS).
