Estimate the Size of the Log Files
The table below compares the file size for different logging formats, with and without com-
pression. It shows the disk space required to log all code and carrier phase measurements
from all GNSS signals over one day at a 1-Hz rate.
The values have been measured in October 2020 in Belgium. They will change depending on
the location and will also increase as more satellites are launched, but the table gives a good
idea of the relative size between the different logging options.
Data format
File Size
File Size
(uncompressed) (gzip-compressed)
SBF (Rinex group)
261 MB
186 MB
SBF (RinexMeas3 group) 70 MB
64 MB
RINEX (v3)
638 MB
64 MB
(Hgzip)
BINEX (7F-05)
143 MB
118 MB
RTCM-MSM (MSM4)
132 MB
96 MB
As can be seen, the smallest files are obtained when logging the RinexMeas3 SBF group (see
the
command in section 1.16), or with the compressed Hatanaka format.
