Here is a list of all the position modes (also known as pos modes or navigation modes) that are supported by OxTS units. You will see this represented as a number in the NCOM output of the device if you were, for example to view the data in NAVgraph.
Most commonly you will see numbers from 0-6 and these are in order of increasing accuracy. This pattern is then repeated for the post process (PP) modes and gx/ix modes.
BLUE - Standard position modes
PURPLE - Post Process modes (Using logged receiver GNSS solutions)
RED - gx/ix modes (Using GNSS solutions from OxTS' own GNSS algorithm)
