This section sets the GPS protocol type and baud rate. GPGGA is the standard GPS string which
is read by the acquisition software. If using a Robotic Total Station, use the "rts-pseudo-
GPGGA" tag for the GPS protocol. Ensure the baud rate also matches.
Gps.antenna.height is the height of the GPS antenna above the base of the cart platform, not
the ground. This sets the attitude correction UTM position in the output file as well as the
attitude corrected display on the navigation map.
Option-target-proximity sets the radius, in meters, which the navigation software will allow a
target to be selected. This means that the GPS position must be within 1.5m (default) of the
position listed in the project file to be able to be selected in the navigation window.
