GAP Lv2 (RINEX) File

GAP level 2 RINEX data files are generated for each GAP turn-on session and for each receiver that was operating.

GAP level 2 files are text files, formatted to the Receiver Independent Exchange Format (RINEX) standard, version 3.02. They are produced by the NovAtel-supplied “Convert” software, version 2.6.7. There are two types of RINEX files, O (observation) and N (navigation), and each share the same name as the lv1 file it was created from, save for the file extension. Reference R3 describes the RINEX format in detail.
