POSA/B Computed Position
This log will contain the last valid position and time calculated referenced to the GPSAntenna phase centre. The
position is in geographic coordinates in degrees based on your specified datum (default is WGS84). The height is
referenced to mean sea level. The receiver time is in GPS weeks and seconds into the week. The estimated standard
deviations of the solution and current filter status are also included. See also Appendix A, Section A.3.2
Pseudorange Algorithms.
