The Gravity Recovery Object Oriented Programming System (GROOPS) is a software toolkit written in C++ that enables the user to perform core geodetic tasks. Key features of the software include gravity field recovery from satellite and terrestrial data, the determination of satellite orbits from global navigation satellite system (GNSS) measurements, and the processing of GNSS constellations and ground station networks.
Most tasks and algorithms are (optionally) parallelized through the Message Passing Interface (MPI), thus the software enables a smooth transition from single-CPU desktop computers to large distributed computing environments for resource intensive tasks.
The complete source code and documentation can be found on GitHub.
