GPS receivers perform initial position and velocity calculations using an earth-centered earth-fixed
(ECEF) coordinate system. Results may be converted to an earth model (geoid) defined by the
selected datum. For GE863-GPS the default datum is WGS 84 (World Geodetic System 1984) which
provides a worldwide common grid system that may be translated into local coordinate systems or
map datums. (Local map datums are a best fit to the local shape of the earth and not valid worldwide).
