Short summary
The near-real-time high spatial resolution of atmospheric water vapor distribution is vital in numerical weather prediction. GPS tomography technique has been proved effectively for three-dimensional water vapor reconstruction. In this study, the tomography processing is optimized in a few aspects by the aid of radiosonde and COSMIC historical data, including the accuracy improvement of tropospheric zenith hydrostatic delay and precipitable water vapor conversion factor.
