Constant | DEAD_RECKONING |
There is currently no more fix, but this data was computed using a previous fix and some information about motion (either from that fix or from other sources) using simple dead reckoning. Not particularly reliable, but better-than-nonsense data. |
Constant | DGPS_FIX |
There is a fix, acquired using differential GPS (DGPS). |
Constant | FLOAT_RTK_FIX |
There is a fix, acquired using floating real-time kinematics. The same comments apply as for a fixed real-time kinematics fix, except that there were insufficient shared satellites to acquire it, so instead you got a slightly less good floating fix. Typical resolution in the decimeter range. |
Constant | GPS_FIX |
There is a fix, acquired using GPS. |
Constant | INVALID_FIX |
The fix is invalid. |
Constant | MANUAL |
There is no real fix from this device, but the location has been manually entered, presumably with data obtained from some other positioning method. |
Constant | PPS_FIX |
There is a fix, acquired using the precise positioning service (PPS). |
Constant | RTK_FIX |
There is a fix, acquired using fixed real-time kinematics. This means that there was a sufficient number of shared satellites with the base station, usually yielding a resolution in the centimeter range. This was added in NMEA 0183 version 3.0. This is also called Carrier-Phase Enhancement or CPGPS, particularly when used in combination with GPS. |
Constant | SIMULATED |
There is no real fix, but instead it is being simulated. |
