Short summary
The development of GPS station networks that provide rich data sources containing atmospheric information will enable more GPS applications in the field of meteorology. This study describes a genetic algorithm for the water vapour tomography; overcomes the ill-conditioned problem; and eliminates the reliance on excessive constraints, priori information, and external data. It is proven in the paper that accurate 3-D water vapour distribution can be provided by this study for atmospheric research.
