In some areas there is a risk that if a single CORS site is
unavailable, your OPUS-RS job will not be processed.
Caution and planning are suggested for OPUS-RS jobs.
OPUS Error Messages and Failures
There are lots of possible error messages when processing
OPUS solutions. It is our experience that almost all errors fall
into a single category:
“There is not enough nearby CORS data to effectively
process your occupation…yet.”
In general, the solution is nearly always the same:
“Wait until more data becomes available and resubmit
your job.”
If you are processing OPUS-RS jobs in an area with very few
CORS stations, and one CORS station was offline, waiting will
not help. OPUS-Static is the solution for locations where
OPUS-RS is not dependable.
CORS stations can report observations hourly or daily. In
some areas (typically UNAVCO PBO sites) most of the sites
report once at the end of each day (GMT.) So data that is
needed to process your job is not available until 4:00 am
GMT on the day after you collect data.
