Error Processing Trajectory

ROCK Desktop
1

I’m having problems processing thru Rock Desktop. I am using a .tps file converted to a .23o file using tps2rin.exe. There appears to be an issue with my base file. I am receiving these two errors:

[2023-09-01 08:32:41.003] [info] (TrajectoryProcessor) TrajectoryProcessor[4368]: stdErr: [Error], [Error processing trajectory], [Failed to load ephemeris file]
&
[2023-09-01 08:30:23.116] [info] (TrajectoryProcessor) TrajectoryProcessor[21852]: stdErr: [Error], [Error processing trajectory], [Error: Kinematic data detected. Only static data can be interpolated.]

Any suggestions?

@mroberts this error:

[Error], [Error processing trajectory], [Failed to load ephemeris file]

is saying that the ephemeris data is not alongside your gnss observation file.

For ephemeris data, RINEX files typically have the following extensions:

  • .YYn or .YYo: For GPS navigation or observation data, where YY stands for the last two digits of the year. For example, the files might have extensions like .19n or .19o for data from 2019. The ‘n’ represents navigation (ephemeris) data, and ‘o’ represents observation data.
  • .YYg: For GLONASS navigation data.
  • .YYl: For Galileo navigation data.
  • .YYc: For Beidou navigation data.

For your specific query about ephemeris data, you would typically be looking for files with extensions like .YYn, .YYg, .YYl, or .YYc,

If you are able to ensure the ephemeris file is alongside the .23o file and you still get this error:

[Error], [Error processing trajectory], [Error: Kinematic data detected. Only static data can be interpolated.]

Then that suggests that your base station moved while it was being collected.
