Raw data can only be saved in the internal memory, in the
“Storage Disk” folder. The raw data files will be found in
the “GNSS Raw Data” sub-folder.
• Raw data files are named as follows:
nnnnyymmddss.grw
Where:
NOTE: The coordinate file created during a work session
uses the same naming convention. Only the extension is
different (”crw” instead of “grw”).
• During raw data collection, even if you are not logging any
feature but just moving from one feature to another,
remember you should keep holding the receiver at an
angle of 45° above the horizontal.
• Never switch the receiver to suspend mode while
collecting raw data (this would end raw data collection). If
you want to save battery power while collecting data, you
may turn off the screen backlight using the Backlight icon
on the MobileMapper Today tool bar. However, if you are
also using the e-compass while collecting raw data,
remember the backlight setting must be left unchanged.
• Always collect raw data for at least 10 minutes, including
for those projects where GIS feature collection can be
completed in less time. Remember the more you collect
raw data for a given project, the better the results of the
post-processing will be.
