Detailed Discussion of Error Estimates<br />
Heave % Amplitude<br />
Error: 5.0<br />
Definition: Heave % Amplitude is an additional heave st<strong>and</strong>ard<br />
deviation component that is the percentage of the<br />
instantaneous heave.<br />
Discussion: See Heave discussion below.<br />
Heave<br />
Error: 0.05<br />
Definition: Heave is the measurement <strong>for</strong> st<strong>and</strong>ard deviation of the heave<br />
data in meters.<br />
Discussion: The POS/MV heave error is given as 0.05 meters + 5% of<br />
heave; however, the Caris error model<br />
implementation uses Heave or Heave % Amplitude,<br />
whichever is greater (see Heave discussion below). Thus a<br />
value of 0.06 <strong>for</strong> Heave is used as a compromise<br />
Gyro<br />
Error: 0.02<br />
Definition: Gyro is the measurement st<strong>and</strong>ard deviation of the<br />
heading data in degrees.<br />
Discussion: Gyro is based on POS/MV manufacturer specifications<br />
Roll<br />
Error: 0.02<br />
Definition: Roll is the measurement st<strong>and</strong>ard deviation of the roll data in<br />
degrees.<br />
Discussion: Roll is based on POS/MV manufacturer specifications.<br />
Pitch<br />
Error: 0.02<br />
Definition: Gyro is the measurement st<strong>and</strong>ard deviation of the<br />
heading data in degrees.<br />
Discussion: Pitch is based on POS/MV manufacturer<br />
specifications.<br />
