GST Position Error Statistics
An example of the GST message string is shown below. Ta bl e A .4 describes the
message fields.

GSV Satellite Information
The GSV message string identifies the number of SVs in view, the PRN numbers,
elevations, azimuths, and SNR values. An example of the GSV message string is shown
below. Tab l e A .5 describes the message fields.
$GPGSV,4,1,13,02,02,213,,03,-3,000,,
11,00,121,,14,13,172,05*67
