An AWK script was used to extract the navigation, Bathymetry, and temperature information recorded in each individual GPS data file. (* refers to the line name, which for this day are L1F1, L2F1, L3F1, L4F1, F5L1, L6F1, L7F1, L8F1, L9F1, L9F2, L10F1, L11F1, L12F1, L12F2, L13F1.)
AWK script "awkgps":

This AWK script was initialized by "doawk" - shell script run under CYGWIN (UNIX like environment that runs under Windows):
files=`ls *.gps | cut -d. -f1 | tr "[A-Z"] ["a-z"]`
for file in $files
do
awk -f awkgps $file.gps $file > $file.txt
done
