Remote Data Commands

The following commands are related to the remote data and are applicable to all projects.

Command

-remfile [input]

Example

-remfile "C:\My Data\Rover.pdc"

Description

Specifies the location of GNSS remote file.

Input

Full file path to the GPB or raw data file.

Notes

If this file is not in GPB format, the command-line utility will convert it (see -remtype).

Wrap the path in quotation marks if it contains spaces.

For NovAtel SPAN users, this file will contain GNSS, IMU and DMI (if applicable) data.

Required?

Yes

Command

-remtype [input]

Example

-remtype GPS_NOVATEL_OEM4

Description

Specifies the receiver/format used for the remote data.

Input

See Table: List of Receiver Types (for -basetype and -remtype)

Notes

Check with Waypoint Support if your receiver type is not listed here.

Required?

No. If the file specified by -remfile is not already in GPB format and this command is not used, then the utility will attempt to auto-detect the receiver type.

Use this command if auto-detection fails.

Command

-remht [input]

Example

-remht 0.957

Description

Specifies the height of the remote antenna.

Input

Antenna height to absolute L1 phase center (meters).

Notes

By default, GNSS coordinates are computed at the L1 phase center. Using this command will result in a vertical shift in the computed trajectory.

Inertial users should not pass this command (see -imula for information).

Required?

No

Command

-remant [input]

Example

-remant "ASH701941.B SCIS"

Description

Specifies the antenna calibration profile to be used for the remote.

Input

Name of the antenna profile (IGS format for absolute antenna calibrations).

Notes

Consult the NGS or IGS website to find the proper name of your antenna's profile.

Required?

No

Command

-remstatic [on/off]

Example

-remstatic on

Description

Specifies whether or not the entire file should be converted as static.

Input

on to have the entire file converted in static mode.

off to let pre-processing checks determine the mode automatically.

Notes

This command is intended for customers performing static processing. It should be set to on if you are processing static baselines (see -procstatic) or doing static coordinate determination via PPP. It is only applicable if the remote file is being converted to GPB.

Required?

No. Default is off.
