NMEA
National Marine Electronics Association.
A
professional organization that defines and
maintains the standard serial format used by
marine electronic navigation equipment and
computer interfaces.
OSGB

Britain, similar to UTMs.
Used with GRB36
datum.
Position fix
Position coordinates as computed by the GPS
receiver.
SOG
Speed Over Ground.
The speed at which the
receiver is moving.
TRN
Turn.
Degrees or direction to turn.
True North
The direction to North Pole from an
observer’s position.
The north direction on
any geographical meridian.
TTG
Time To Go.
The measurement of how long
it will take you to arrive at your destination.
TTG is based on how fast you are moving
towards the destination and the distance
