Collecting & Processing Static Data
You know the old saying, ??Use it or loose it?? Yea, that definitely hit me square in the noggin. I couldn’t tell you the last time that I had to gather static data & process it through RINEX & OPUS, but this past week I decided that it was time that I tried it again to make sure I could still do it & guess what…..I can’t. The last time I did it these were the steps I followed (to the best I can remember):
- Collect the data (15′ minimum for rapid static).
- Convert the .t02 file using RINEX, (v 2.10 or newer)
- Submit the observation file to OPUS
- Patiently wait for a little bit and tada, your results are emailed to you.
Well, I have tried this process several times and I keep getting an abort message from OPUS varying from “session too short; data taken from more than one location; data only contained values for a single frequency; RINEX file not formatted correctly; & one of the lines in the RINEX file is over 80 characters” all depending on which version of RINEX I used (v2.10, 2.11, 3.02, 3.03, or 3.04).
I know that I have let far too much time pass by without staying up on this, and I am probably missing a current step, or not using the proper RINEX conversion (or more current conversion software). Any help with this procedure will be greatly appreciated.
I am using a Trimble TSC7 & a Trimble R12i. I have tried collecting the data both in the unit and on the collector, and converting both a .T02 file and a .T04 file. All of my sessions have been for 20 minutes.
