RinexObsFile Object

The RinexObsFile object provides functionalities for reading and writing PseudorangeObservation data (C1, C2, P1, P2) to and from a Rinex Observation file. This is an ASCII file of Pseudorange data conforming to the RINEX standard. The time system is GPS Time, and the scalar pseudorange data is given in meters and is reference frame independent.

Name	Description
Agency	The name of the Agency in the Rinex Observation file header.
AntennaNumber	The number of the Antenna in the Rinex Observation file header.
AntennaOffset	The position offset between the antenna and marker, in the East-North-Up frame.
AntennaType	The type of the Antenna in the Rinex Observation file header.
ApplyLimitValidationChecks	Determines whether to set the Validity flag on measurements as they are loaded, based on the applicable limits for the particular measurement type.
ApproximatePosition	The approximate position of the marker.
Comments	Comments for the header of the Rinex Observation file.
DataSpanEndEpoch	The Epoch of the last Observation in the file.
DataSpanStartEpoch	The Epoch of the first Observation in the file.
DataTypes	The Data Types contained in the Rinex Observation file.
DeclaredName	The name of the object as declared.
Filename	The file name to load.
FirstObservation	The first Observation in the file.
LastObservation	The last Observation in the file.
LeapSeconds	The number of Leap Seconds between GPS time and UTC.
MarkerName	The name of the Marker in the Rinex Observation file header.
MarkerNumber	The number of the Marker in the Rinex Observation file header.
MeasuringReceiver	The Measuring GPSReceiver that is attached to the Spacecraft being Observed.
MeasuringSensor	The Sensor object attached to the measuring GPSReceiver. The Sensor's X, Y, and Z position properties will be used to model an offset from the origin of the Spacecraft BCS when modeling measurements.
Name	The name displayed for this object in output windows such as views, plots, and reports.
NavigationConstellation	Navigation Constellation (GPS, GNASS, etc) that is observing the GPS Receiver.
NumberOfComments	The number of Comments lines in the header of the Rinex Observation file.
NumberOfDataTypes	The number of Data Types contained in the Rinex Observation file.
ObjectId	The unique identifier for the object.
ObjectType	The type of the object.
ObservationInterval	The time interval between successive observations.
ObserverName	The name of the Observer in the Rinex Observation file header.
ReceiverNumber	The number of the Receiver in the Rinex Observation file header.
ReceiverType	The type of the Receiver in the Rinex Observation file header.
ReceiverVersion	The version of the Receiver in the Rinex Observation file header.
RinexVersion	The Rinex Version of the Observation file.
UseC1	A flag indicating whether or not the C1 Pseudorange measurement is to be used.
UseC2	A flag indicating whether or not the C2 Pseudorange measurement is to be used.
UseIonoFree	A flag indicating whether or not the iono-free derived pseudorange measurement is to be used. This is only available if C1 and C2, or P1 and P2 are available.
UseIonosphericCorrection	A flag indicating whether or not the Ionospheric correction will be used.
UseMeasurementWeighting	A flag indicating whether or not to perform measurement weighting using internal geometric-based expressions. Measurement weighting should be turned off if a custom Measurement Noise model is implemented at the script level.
UseP1	A flag indicating whether or not the P1 Pseudorange measurement is to be used.
UseP2	A flag indicating whether or not the P2 Pseudorange measurement is to be used.

Name	Description
ClearSavedStates	Clears previous saved states for this object.
GetAllObservations	Retrieves all observations from the TrackingDataFile and stores them in a List<Observation>. Any current observations held by the OD Observation object will be overwritten by the GetAllObservations() method.
GetFromFile	Load the object state from the specified FreeFlyer object file.
GetFromString	Load the object state from the specified string.
GetNextObservation	Retrieves the next observation in file.
PutToFile	Convert the object state to FreeFlyer object xml and write to a file.
PutToString	Convert the object state to FreeFlyer object xml and return as a string.
ReferenceEquals	Returns 1 if the argument refers to the calling object and 0 otherwise.
ResetToStart	Resets the TrackingDataFile to the start of the file.
Restore	Restore an object's state from a previously saved state.
Save	Save the object's state so that it can be restored later.
SetMeasuringReceiver	Set the GPS Receiver that is providing the observations.
SetNavigationConstellation	Set the Navigation Constellation (e.g. GPS) as the Observer for the tracking data in the file.
WriteValidDataToFile	Write out all Observations containing valid Measurements to a file. Returns 1 if data was written to a file, 0 if no valid observation data was found, or if the method fails to write to a file.
