gps.ee_acceleration_limited

Each row represents an acceleration measurement as it is interpreted from the data that comes via the accelerometer. Acceleration is looked at in batches for a period of time, for 3 components (X,Y,Z). The blocks are delimited by a starting date and time, and then each observation is numbered consecutively.

The logger tries to mark the start of blocks from the GPS fix that coincides with the beginning of the acceleration block. If there's no GPS fix during that block, then it extrapolates the date and time and makes a special record which is interpreted by our accelerometer processing software and you can find it via gps.ee_acc_start_limited. Therefore, to know all valid dates and times that mark a valid block for a tracker, you need to consider all of the values in column date_time on gps.ee_tracking_speed_limited for the given tracker, column date_time on gps.ee_acc_start_limited, and all the values on column date_time for that tracker. And the order is important within each block, so you should sort the acceleration measurements by block and index.

This table structure has not changed with respect to our previous database.

COLUMN_NAME TYPE_NAME IS_NULLABLE DESCRIPTION
device_info_serial int4 NO Serial number of the tracker that reported the fix. Part of the unique identifier of the GPS fix.
date_time timestamp NO Time of the acceleration block that this measurement belongs to.
index int2 NO Sorting order of the measurement within the acceleration block (each block starts at 0).
x_acceleration int2 YES Acceleration measured on the x (or surge) axis (range between -2666 and 2666).
y_acceleration int2 YES Acceleration measured on the y (or sway) axis (range between -2666 and 2666).
z_acceleration int2 YES Acceleration measured on the z (or heave) axis (range between -2666 and 2666).

gps.ee_acc_start_limited

Each row represents the start of a block of acceleration measurements when a GPS fix is not available at that acceleration block's time.

The logger tries to mark the start of blocks from the GPS fix that coincides with the begin of the acceleration block. If there's no GPS fix during that block, then it extrapolates the date and time and makes a special record which is interpreted by our accelerometer processing software and made available through this view.

Therefore, to know all valid dates and times that mark a valid block for a tracker, you need to consider all of the values in column date_time on gps.ee_tracking_speed_limited for the given tracker, column date_time on gps.ee_acc_start_limited, and all the values on column date_time for that tracker. And the order is important within each block, so you should sort the acceleration measurements by block and index.

If C0-C1 is parsed its values are compared with the previous value and if the settings are the same, then no new records need to be added. If uplink settings are parsed, then wait until the last setting has been seen (DL command or EOF); then store all the new settings in one record. Only for newer firmware.
