GNSS geodetic time series analysis allows the study of the geodynamic behavior of a specific terrestrial area. These time series define the temporal evolution of the geocentric or topocentric coordinates obtained from geodetic stations, which are linear or non-linear depending, respectively, on the tectonic or volcanic–tectonic character of a region. Linear series are easily modeled but, for the study of nonlinear series, it is necessary to apply filtering techniques that provide a more

... analysis of their behavior. In this work, a comparative analysis is carried out between different filtering techniques and non–linear GNSS time series analysis: 1sigma–2sigma filter, outlier filter, wavelet analysis, Kalman filter and CATS analysis (Create and Analyze Time Series). This comparative methodology is applied to the time series that describe the volcanic process of El Hierro island (2010–2014). Among them, the time series of the slope distance variation between FRON (El Hierro island) and LPAL (La Palma island) stations is studied, detecting and analyzing the different phases involved in the process.
