Topside ionospheric vertical electron density profile reconstruction using GPS and ionosonde data: possibilities for South Africa

Successful empirical modeling of the topside ionosphere relies on the availability of good quality measured data. The Alouette, ISIS and Intercosmos-19 satellite missions provided large amounts of topside sounder data, but with limited coverage of relevant geophysical conditions (e.g., geographi...
