The Bevis' mean temperature equation (MTE) is generally used in estimating Precipitable Water Vapor (PWV) based on GPS measurements. Because the equation was derived from North American meteorological data, however, it may induce errors in PWV if the equation is applied to Korea which has different climate conditions. In this study, we developed a new MTE using local meteorological data. We compared PWVs from the new equation with those from the Bevis and two other local equations. The PWV differences from the four equations increase as a function of surface temperatures at the observation site, reaching up to 1˜3 mm.
