Reference Frames Within SPAN

5.3The Enclosure Frame

The definition of the enclosure frame is marked on the SPAN-IGM and represents how the sensors are mounted in the enclosure. If the SPAN-IGM is mounted with the z-axis (as marked on the SPAN-IGM enclosure) pointing up, the SPAN-IGM enclosure frame is the same as the SPAN frame.

The origin of this frame is not the enclosure center, but the center of Navigation (sensor center).

5.4The Vehicle Frame

The definition of the vehicle frame is as follows:

z-axis – points up through the roof of the vehicle perpendicular to the ground

y-axis – points out the front of the vehicle in the direction of travel

x-axis – completes the right-handed system (out the right-hand side of the vehicle when facing forward
