Dear Jeremy, Peter and Antoine,
To do a little more, I ran ASTROLAB v3 with Jeremy C data, and the results are as follows :
L = 8° 49.19'N G = 109° 45.14'E
DOP = 1.56 sigma = 0.66 NM
Without transport (vessel speed = 0), the results should be as follows :
L = 8° 50.1'N G = 109° 45.2'E
DOP = 1.56 sigma = 1.67 NM
(DOP has the same definition as PDOP with GPS).
Interesting case, thank you Jeremy.
Regards,
Yves Robin-Jouan (alias Ulyves)
