The paper deals with the use of ground receiving navigation stations for remote sensing of the
atmosphere to determine the water vapor in the air. The method is based on the principle of measuring
the delay of radio signals in the troposphere, followed by a decision of the inverse problem. Using
information from the network of base stations allows to determine the delay of radio signals with greater
accuracy through the use of group processing of the phase measurement range.
