Ship navigational location and attitude (nav)

Browse Data

On sea-based mobile ARM deployments, several instruments depend on the ship s current position and “attitude”. The NAV system reads the ship s current position (latitude and longitude) as well as its “attitude” (roll, pitch, and yaw angles). This data is collected for both near-real-time and post-deployment processing of instrument data.
