Field#
Field Name
Description
F1
time
UTC time for position fix in hours, minutes, seconds (hhmmss.ss)
(000000.00 to 235959.99)
F2
Lat
Latitude in degrees and decimal minutes (ddmm.mmmmmm)
(0000.000000 to 8959.999999)
F3
N/S
Direction of latitude (N=north, S=south)
F4
Lon
Longitude in degrees and decimal minutes (dddmm.mmmmmm)
(00000.000000 to 17959.999999)
F5
E/W
Direction of longitude (E=east, W=west)
F6
quality
Quality of the position fix (0 to 8)
0 = invalid solution
1 = Standalone GPS fix
2 = DGPS fix
3 = PPS fix
4 = Real Time Kinematic
5 = Float RTK
6 = estimated (dead reckoning)
7 = Manual input mode
8 = Simulation mode
F7
used
Number of used satellites in the position fix
F8
hdop
Horizontal dilution of precision
F9
Alt
Altitude above mean-sea-level (geoidal height) in meters
F10
M
Units for altitude (M=meters)
F11
separation
Geoidal separation (difference between the WGS-84 earth
ellipsoid and mean-sea-level, where “-” means mean-sea-level is
below ellipsoid) in meters.
F12
M
Units for geoidal separation (M=meters)
F13
age
Time since last dGPS data was received in seconds
