The NMEA GST sentence provides error statistics of the position fix. These statistics follow from the position
calculation process.
GST SENTENCE STRUCTURE & EXAMPLE
Estimated error in position solution
UTC time in hours, minutes, seconds of the GPS position
RMS value of the standard deviation of the range inputs to the navigation process. Range
inputs include pseudo-ranges and differential DGNSS corrections
Standard deviation of semi-major axis of error ellipse (meters)
Standard deviation of semi-minor axis of error ellipse (meters)
Orientation of semi-major axis of error ellipse (meters)
Standard deviation of latitude error (meters)
Standard deviation of longitude error (meters)
Standard deviation of altitude error (meters)
5.2.4 ZDA SENTENCE
The NMEA ZDA sentence provides time and time zone information.
ZDA SENTENCE STRUCTURE & EXAMPLE
UTC time in hours, minutes, seconds of the GPS position
