The purpose of these data is to provide the navigation for one day of USGS cruise 2010-010 as recorded by CSI LGBX Pro Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) with HYPACK software. This provides an archive of the original navigation as well as allowing others to reprocess the navigation for their purposes.
