Meaning

1 (byte) OUTPUT RECORD TYPE = 12

Receiver diagnostics output record

1 (byte) RECORD LENGTH

Length of this sub-record

4 (float) POSITION RMS

The square root of (the sum of the squares of the range residuals divided by the number of degrees of freedom in the solution).

4 (float) SIGMA EAST

Shown in meters.

4 (float) SIGMA NORTH

Shown in meters.

4 (float) COVAR. EAST-NORTH

Dimensionless.

4 (float) SIGMA UP

Shown in meters.

4 (float) SEMI MAJOR AXIS

The error ellipse in meters.

4 (float) SEMI-MINOR AXIS

The error ellipse in meters.

4 (float) ORIENTATION

ORIENTATION of the semi-major axis is in degrees from clockwise from True North.

4 (float) UNIT VARIANCE

Valid only for over-determined solutions. It should tend towards 1.0. A value less than 1.0 indicates that the a priori variances were too pessimistic.

2 (short) NUMBER EPOCHS
