Attitude
Provides a single transmission that describes the 
position of a vessel relative to both horizontal and 
vertical planes. This would typically be used for 
vessel stabilization, vessel control and onboard 
platform stabilization.

Magnetic Variation
Message for transmitting variation. The message 
contains a sequence number to allow synchronization 
of other messages such as Heading or Course over 
Ground. The quality of service and age of service are 
provided to enable recipients to determine an 
appropriate level of service if multiple transmissions 
exist.

Position, Rapid Update
Provides latitude and longitude referenced to 
WGS84. Being defined as single frame message, as 
opposed to other PGNs that include latitude and 
longitude and are defined as fast or multi-packet, this 
PGN lends itself to being transmitted more 
frequently without using up excessive bandwidth on 
the bus for the benefit of receiving equipment that 
may require rapid position updates.

Position Delta, High Precision Rapid Update
The "Position Delta, High Precision Rapid Update" 
Parameter Group is intended for applications where 
very high precision and very fast update rates are 
needed for position data. This PGN can provide delta 
position changes down to 1 mm with a delta time 
period accurate to 5 msec.

Altitude Delta, High Precision Rapid Update
The "Altitude Delta, High Precision Rapid Update" 
Parameter Group is intended for applications where 
very high precision and very fast update rates are 
needed for altitude and course over ground data. This 
PG can provide delta altitude changes down to 1 
millimeter, a change in direction as small as 0.0057°, 
and with a delta time period accurate to 5 msec.
