Function startp - begin user’s PVT vector trajectory sequence
Call Format .startp()
.startp()
Parameters - name of Vector PVT table (trajectory) to be saved
Return Value OK or FAILED : Error message
Example V1.startp() - begin user’s PVT trajectory by saving the results in a file.
V1.startp(traj_name) - begin user’s PVT trajectory and save result in a file
with the name “traj_name”
For more information see the vector ends function example.
(see Appendix B.1.2.2 Add Point Sample)
Function starts - begin polyline trajectory sequence for a vector object
Call Format .starts()
.starts()
Parameters - name of the Vector PVT table (trajectory) to be saved
Return Value OK or FAILED : Error message
Example V1.starts() - begin polyline trajectory calculation
For more information see the vector ends function example.
(see Appendix B.1.3.1 Line-to-Line Sample)
