Thanks for the reply! If you have more details that would be very helpful. I'm reading a GPS record to get lat/long/height, according to the DROP source code it has many other fields but not time.

Greetings,

There is a GPS record with the real world timestamp (in UTC, I think.) You can work backwards from that to get the start time of the logging.

If you need more detail, let me know.

Hello. I've managed to write some Java code to import DAT files into my specialist GIS package. I'm struggling with time though.

I can see that time increments in milliseconds come from the "tick"/600, but I can't find any way of getting the start time of logging. I've been using the DROP (https://www.google.com/url?q=https://github.com/unhcfreg/DROP&source=gmail-imap&ust=1643636411000000&usg=AOvVaw2XT1gUceOqvTjo3pKDC-NM) python software as my guide in this. It seems to use the file's OS time stamp with the obvious problems that entails.

Any help is appreciated :-)
