The error ellipse is centered on the least squares computed position and is defined
by the sigma max and sigma min. It bounds the 39.4% confidence region (ie; 1
sigma standard deviation – dual variate value).
The following diagram illustrates the Horizontal Error Ellipse values provided by the
C-Nav[2050] GPS Receiver in the NMEA GST message.
Note –
This 1 sigma value can be approximated to an area of probability in which 95% of the horizontal
position measurements will lie by multiplying by 2.447
.
