Features overview
TopoSat Rinex Editor is an utility for editing RINEX files (formats 2, 3 and 4) in order to analyse the constellations present, the satellites and signals used, and to modify some of the information held in the header or the body. It can be used through a graphical interface or from the command line.
It is available in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese (Europe and Brazil).
Its strengths are:
- Analysis of the source file, with a summary display of that analysis.
- Export with specific constellations, satellites or signals disabled.
- Header ECEF coordinates that can be entered from geographic or projected coordinates (with or without a geoid model).
- Reading of online processing reports: IGN France, Trimble RTX, SCRS-PPP (Canada).
- Direct conversion of ECEF coordinates into geographic or projected coordinates.
- Display of those ECEF coordinates in a KML viewer, plus KML/KMZ export.
- Conversion of a RINEX 3 or 4 file to an earlier version.
It also allows the following changes :
- Recording interval.
- Start and end times of the recording.
- Marker Name, Marker Number and Marker Type.
- Observer / Agency.
- Antenna height.
The detailed list of constellations, satellites, and signals is available. All these elements can be activated or deactivated in a grouped or individual manner.
After modifying the time bounds, recording interval, and the selected constellations or satellites, the export file size is automatically re-estimated to reflect these new parameters.
The XYZ (ECEF) coordinates indicated in the header can be entered or exported as geographic values or projected coordinates, with the option to choose between ellipsoidal height and elevation. Direct import from reports generated by certain online calculation services is supported, alongside KML/KMZ export and direct visualization in a map viewer.
