Uncorrected GNSS (GPS) observational data collected in the Windmill Islands on the 19/01/2018 and 20/01/2018

Note that since these points were collected in autonomous mode (with no RTK or SBAS solutions), these are uncorrected data points, and have poor accuracy, particularly in the vertical (see the VSDV field for the vertical standard deviation). The accuracy of these positions can be substantially improved by differentially correcting/post-processing the data. This can be done with the open source software RTKLIB.

Using the Septentrio software (SBF converter), the raw data files (*.sbf files collected by the Septentrio unit) have been converted into Rinex *.obs files to facilitate this process. The base station files for the appropriate time period can be downloaded from the Geoscience Australia Geodesy ftp server. The closest base station (CORS) is located at Casey and known as “cas1”. ftp://ftp.ga.gov.au/geodesy-outgoing/gnss/data/highrate/2018/
