Position quality indicator
0 = Fix not available or invalid
1 = No real time position, navigation fix
2 = Real time position, ambiguities not fixed
3 = Real time position, ambiguities fixed
Number of satellites in use, 00 to 26.
Altitude of position marker as local ellipsoidal height. If the local ellipsoidal height is not
available, the WGS 1984 ellipsoidal height will be exported.
Units of altitude as fixed text M
