Plots

Combined Plots

all_latdiffvstime_1.png

A plot of the differences in successive latitude values of each data set vs the time. Lines between points are drawn to make easy viewing of the spikes.

all_latdiffvstime_2.png

A plot of the differences in successive latitude values of each data set vs the time. This plot is zoomed in the vertical axis to better show the POS-MV and DGPS data.

all_latdiffvstime_3.png

A plot of the differences in successive latitude values of each data set vs the time. This plot is zoomed in the vertical axis to better show the POS-MV and DGPS data. It is also zoomed in the horizental axis to show times between 129.2 and 129.3 (decimal day). Also P-Code GPS is plotted with dots and the others lines so the plot is not cluttered, but the trends in the data can be seen.

all_latdiffvstime_4.png

A plot of the differences in successive latitude values of each data set vs time. Zoomed as in the version 3 and expanded to show times between 129.20 and 129.22

all_Lat-Long.png
