Warning

Rapid edition: this report uses the GSI Rapid series (R5.1 from 2026-04 onward, R5 before that) as the reference coordinates. The Rapid series is a quick-look solution published 2–3 days after observation; once the Final series (F5/F5.1, published ~3 weeks after observation) is complete a separate finalised edition will be issued.

Rapid-vs-Final differences are usually at the mm level, but can widen briefly right after events such as earthquakes or equipment changes (methodology §3.2 / §8.5).

2 Introduction

This report summarises PNT Moni’s evaluation of QZSS CLAS (Centimeter Level Augmentation Service) performance for June 2026, using publicly available data and open-source tooling.

As an independent evaluation service for GNSS augmentation, PNT Moni continuously monitors CLAS performance at higher spatial and temporal resolution than the official Service Performance Report published by the Cabinet Office / Quasi-Zenith Satellite System Services Inc. (QSS). This monthly report complements the official semi-annual report, offering monthly cadence, an independent third-party assessment, and practically useful analytical depth. This Free-tier monthly report covers national statistics only; per-station analysis is provided in the Pro tier.

The “Methodology Version Tag” at the end of this report uniquely identifies the processing configuration that produced it. For the full methodology document see https://pntmoni.com/methodology/clas/v1.0.2.

3 Methodology

This section summarises the methodology; see the link above for the full document.

Data sources: 30-second RINEX observations from ~1,300 GEONET stations distributed by the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan (GSI) under PDL 1.0 (source: GSI GEONET data service), the CLAS L6 augmentation archive published on the web by QSS, and IGS broadcast ephemerides / Earth-rotation parameters from CDDIS.

Processing engine: pntmoni-claslib v0.8.3-pntmoni-1, PPP-RTK mode (kinematic, l1+l2+l5).

Reference coordinates: GSI daily coordinate solutions (the series matching the period — F5 era = ITRF2014, F5.1 era = ITRF2020; R5 / R5.1 when the Rapid series is used) are relativised to station 92110 (Tsukuba 1) and smoothed with a ±7-day (15 calendar-day) median filter centred on the target day \(d\) (common-mode removal, Method B). Method version: gsi-daily-median15d-1.0.

Quality control (QC): teqc 2019Feb25 for 2026–2027, with migration to MRTKLIB’s mrtk qc planned around 2027/Q4.

Statistical aggregation: 95% / 99% percentile errors are computed by pooling the epoch errors of all stations and all days in each aggregation cell (methodology §5.1, same rule as NAVIGATION 2026). TTFF uses a 15-minute reset (continuity with NAVIGATION 2026, methodology §5.2); a 60-minute reset will be added in Phase 1.

Known structural differences from official QSS figures: PNT Moni’s methodology differs structurally from the official QSS Service Performance Report in four respects — sampling rate (30 s vs 1 s), a parameter set retuned for 30 s, CLASLIB version differences, and the resulting Kalman-filter behaviour. See Shiono & Kubo (2025, 2026). These are treated as structural characteristics, not bugs; comparing absolute values or equating the numbers is not meaningful (methodology §8.3). In direction, the lower epoch density at 30 s gives filter convergence and re-convergence intervals a relatively larger weight in the pooled statistics, pushing the tail percentiles (95% / 99%) above the official evaluation. PS-QZSS standard values are accordingly used in this report as reference values only, never for compliance judgement (see the note in the Executive Summary).

3.1 Evaluation Network

CLAS divides the country into 12 networks; each station’s network is determined by the Compact Network ID assigned by CLASLIB. Stations are further classified as Inside Network or Outside Network by a point-in-polygon test against the per-network polygons defined in the ION GNSS+ 2025 / NAVIGATION 2026 papers (Shiono & Kubo) — i.e. regions where augmentation is interpolated vs extrapolated. The network polygons below are updated only when the CLAS service area changes (rarely); the polygon version is recorded in the Methodology Version Tag at the end of this report.

Figure 1: CLAS 12-network grid points and the GEONET stations evaluated this month.

The CLAS network polygons define the regions where the augmentation is intended to meet spec. Outside-Network stations receive corrections derived by extrapolation and may therefore have different error characteristics (Inside/Outside aggregate analysis is provided in the Pro tier).

4 Executive Summary

Table 1: Headline performance metrics.

	Metric	Value
0	Stations evaluated	1,115
1	Horizontal error 50% [cm]	2.50
2	Horizontal error 95% [cm]	13.28
3	Horizontal error 99% [cm]	22.81
4	Vertical error 95% [cm]	22.26
5	TTFF 50% [s, 15-min reset]	180.0
6	TTFF 95% [s, 15-min reset]	360.0
7	National fix rate (Q=4)	95.8 %

Highlights for June 2026:

National horizontal error, 95th percentile: 13.28 cm
National vertical error, 95th percentile: 22.26 cm
TTFF (15-min reset, 95th percentile): 360.0 s
National fix rate (Q=4): 95.76%
L6 broadcast alerts: 0

Reading these values against the Performance Standard (PS-QZSS)

The QZSS Performance Standard (PS-QZSS) sets the CLAS kinematic positioning-accuracy standard at horizontal 95% 12 cm / vertical 95% 24 cm. Compliance with the standard is verified by QSS’s official Service Performance Reports, whose evaluation is run under conditions that differ from this report’s (1-s sampling, a fixed evaluation station set). PNT Moni’s 30-s, ~1,100-station methodology (see Methodology) is known to produce structurally higher tail percentiles than the official evaluation (Shiono & Kubo 2026, §4.1.2). Whether a value in this report sits above or below a PS-QZSS standard value is therefore not a compliance judgement; the standard values appear in this report only as a reference scale (e.g. in the spatial distribution maps). Quantitative reconciliation against official figures is performed in the half-yearly Comparison Archive.

5 Performance

5.1 National Overview

5.1.1 Error Distribution

Figure 2: Cumulative distribution of horizontal error (epochs pooled over qualified stations).

Figure 3: Cumulative distribution of vertical error (epochs pooled over qualified stations).

Table 2: TTFF percentiles (15-min reset, qualified stations, all days).

	Percentile	TTFF [s]
0	50%	180.0
1	90%	270.0
2	95%	360.0
3	99%	660.0

June 2026: TTFF success rate 93.83 % (100,169/106,752 reset windows obtained a valid fix). At each reset the filter state is fully cleared and the solution re-initialized to standalone; TTFF is the time from that reset to the first fixed solution, recorded on the 30-second observation grid. A fix at the first epoch after reset is therefore recorded as 0 s (true TTFF ≤ 30 s), which is why P50/P95 are often 0 s; P99 reflects the convergence tail.

Figure 4: Cumulative distribution of TTFF (15-min reset, reset windows pooled nationwide over the period).

5.1.2 Spatial Distribution

Performance is visualised on hexagonal cells sized to the CLAS augmentation grid spacing (~60 km). Each cell’s value is the 95th percentile computed over all stations and all epochs pooled within that cell (same rule as methodology §5.1). Cells with no stations remain blank. Cells backed by fewer than 3 distinct stations are drawn with a dotted inner ring — a reliability marking: with so few stations the cell’s percentile is statistically thin and station-local effects (multipath environment, antenna snow accretion) can colour the whole cell, so read those cells as indicative rather than representative (methodology §5.1, 2026-07-18 revision). Southern-island stations outside the CLAS service area (out_of_service) are excluded from cell evaluation.

Colour encodes error magnitude on a perceptually-uniform continuous colormap (purple = smaller error → yellow = larger error), with no discrete boundaries — the map shows the spatial gradient of performance, not a pass/fail classification. The scale spans a fixed range (0–40 cm horizontal, 0–60 cm vertical) set from PNT Moni’s own historical error range, so maps stay comparable month to month; this range is not a Performance-Standard threshold and the colouring is not a compliance judgement (see Methodology and the Executive Summary note). Cells exceeding the range render at the top colour (colorbar top arrow).

Figure 5: Spatial distribution of the horizontal-error 95th percentile (60 km hex cells, epochs pooled). Dotted ring = cell backed by fewer than 3 stations (indicative).

Figure 6: Spatial distribution of the vertical-error 95th percentile (60 km hex cells, epochs pooled). Dotted ring = cell backed by fewer than 3 stations (indicative).

5.1.3 Recent-Month Trend

Coming Soon. This section will show the past 13 months of national 95th-percentile horizontal/vertical error, with the current month highlighted and a comparison marker for the same month last year. The trend view becomes meaningful once the Phase 0 / Phase 1 backfill has filled in everything from April 2025 onward; until then the table above shows the current month’s values only.

5.2 Cross-Validation

Note

Coming Soon (Phase 1+)

Cross-validation will report agreement statistics between the primary CLASLIB-based processing and the parallel evaluation engine MRTKLIB on a sample of ~100 stations. It demonstrates that PNT Moni’s evaluation agrees across independent OSS implementations, in preparation for making MRTKLIB primary in 2027/Q4.

Phase 1 goal: publish cross-validation on the parallel sample stations. Phase 2 goal (2027/Q4): role reversal — MRTKLIB primary, CLASLIB as historical reference.

6 Data Availability
