Csv Field Explanation

The table below gives the explanations to the data fields of the exported CSV data.

GNSS Data

Data fieldExplanation
SNSerial Number.
UUIDUniversally Unique Identifier, a 128-bit number used to identify information in computer systems.
Transmitting timeTime the device communicates with the server, accurate to milliseconds.
Collecting timeTime the device collects data, accurate to seconds.
LongitudeLongitude of the GNSS fix in degrees, accurate to 7 decimal places.
LatitudeLatitude of the GNSS fix in degrees, accurate to 7 decimal places.
AltitudeAltitude of the GNSS fix in meters, accurate to 1 decimal places. It is calculated considering mean sea level.
Altitude (Ellipsoid)Altitude (Ellipsoid) height of the GNSS fix in meters, accurate to 1 decimal place. It is calculated considering the ellipsoid.
SpeedInstantaneous speed of the device in m/s.
North SpeedThe speed at which the device moves northward in the Local Tangent Plane Coordinates (LTPC), measured in m/s. When the value of the north speed is negative, it indicates that the device is moving southward.
East SpeedThe speed at which the device moves eastward in the Local Tangent Plane Coordinates (LTPC), measured in m/s. When the value of the east speed is negative, it indicates that the device is moving westward.
Down SpeedThe speed at which the device moves downward in the Local Tangent Plane Coordinates (LTPC), measured in m/s. When the value of the down speed is negative, it indicates that the device is moving upward.
CourseThe angle between the clockwise direction from the north and the movement direction of the device. The value range is 0 ~ 359.9, where 0 means the device moves towards north.
Satellite usedNumber of satellites connected for positioning.
Positioning modeValid values are 0, 1, and 2, where 0 represents a failed positioning, 1 represents 2D positioning, 2 represents 3D positioning.
HorAccuracyIndex of horizonal accuracy of GNSS positioning. Lower value indicates that the positioning is more accurate.
VerAccuracyIndex of vertical accuracy of GNSS positioning. Lower value indicates that the positioning is more accurate.
HDOPIndex of horizonal accuracy of GNSS positioning. Lower value indicates that the positioning is more accurate.
VDOPIndex of vertical accuracy of GNSS positioning. Lower value indicates that the positioning is more accurate.
GNSS time consumptionTime spent in one positioning session in seconds.
Data SourceModes of data collecting. Valid values are 1, 2, and 4, where 1 represents scheduled collecting, 2 represents dynamic collecting (BOOST data triggered by voltage), 4 represents in-flight collecting (BOOST data triggered by movement speed). There can be multiple values for Data Source.

Note: HorAccuracy and HDOP both indicate the horizonal accuracy of GNSS positioning. VerAccuracy and VDOP both indicate the vertical accuracy of GNSS positioning. Devices that support INTELINK (such as MINI, NANO, OMNI and some of LEGO) use HDOP and VDOP to indicate GNSS accuracy. Devices that do not support INTELINK (such as FLEX and some of LEGO) use HorAccuracy and VerAccuracy to indicate GNSS accuracy. Each model will only use one type of these values. You can ignore another value type according to your device model.
