The Gravity Recovery Object Oriented Programming System (GROOPS) is a software package written in C++ that allows the user to perform core geodetic tasks. The software provides gravity field recovery from satellite and terrestrial data, determination of low earth orbits from Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurements, Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR), and computation of GNSS constellations and ground station networks. In addition, GROOPS contains a variety of tools for analyzing and displaying mass changes including filtering, surface loading corrections and division into river basins.
For easy and intuitive setup of complex workflows, GROOPS includes a graphical user interface for creating and editing configuration files. The source code of GROOPS is released under the GPL v3 licence and is available on GitHub (https://github.com/groops-devs/groops) together with documentation, a cookbook with guided examples and installation instructions for different platforms.
