7.2 Submission of data

We would like all participating teams to submit the following data in a .csv-file, for easier and more neutral judgment of the performance of your vessel. The data columns should be separated with “,” (comma) and the "." (dot) should be used as a decimal separator.

It is critical that the data is provided in the listed order, also the first row (header) of your file must contain the variable name.

The order of the data to be provided is a follows:

  1. Latitude

  2. Longitude

  3. Altitude

  4. Heading

  5. Speed over ground

  6. Power consumption

  7. Percentage of battery left

  8. The length of your timestep

  9. Other parameters you would wish to include

GPS-coordinates should be in LLA-format, as Latitude, Longitude and Altitude. This is chosen because it is a simple and common GPS-format. It is also not certain that all participating teams use and follow the correct maritime and GNSS-standards.

These other parameters must be specified in the first row, and they should be accompanied by a message or some sort of documentation, telling us why this data is provided and how it should be interpreted and presented.

If additional data is provided, we also wish you to provide the code for us to interpret and present it.
