Position EM38B readings and create XYZ file based on standalone NAV38B file:

  • Apply GPS antenna offset in any direction (as entered in the field with option of correcting this parameter during data processing)
  • Selection of specific EM38B dipole mode
  • Include elevation data with correction for GPS antenna height
  • Filters the quality of positioned data based on GPS parameters as PDOP (or equivalent) and the degree of differential corrections
  • Field QC parameters (Quality Indicator, number of Satellites and PDOP) are written into the generated XYZ file
  • Further enhancement of the collected EM38B readings position is obtained by specifying the GPS Time Gap and GPS Minimum Interval
  • Choice of coordinates in generated XYZ file: Geodetic coordinates (Latitude/Longitude in degrees) or UTM coordinates (WGS 1984 datum in meters, feet, or US Survey feet)

Position EM38B readings and create XYZ file based on external GPS file:
(This function is used when real time GPS differential corrections are not available, or when further post processing of GPS data may improve positioning accuracy)

  • Apply GPS antenna offset in any direction (as entered in the field with option of correcting this parameter during data processing)
  • Selection of specific EM38B components
  • Filters the quality of positioned data based on GPS parameters as PDOP (or equivalent) and the degree of differential corrections
  • Further enhancement of the collected EM38B readings position is obtained by specifying the GPS Time Gap and GPS Minimum Interval
