API

sem(file, gpsEpoch)

Parses a string containing a GPS almanac in sem format. Pass gpsEpoch with the number of times the gps week has rolled over. Set gpsEpoch to null and year to the year in which the almanac was issued to try to automatically resolve the gps epoch. (Defaults to current year)

Return an Almanac object.

Parameters

name	type	description
file	string	Almanac in SEM format
gpsEpoch	number	(optional) Number of times the GPS Week index rolled over.
year	number	(optional) Year in which the Almanac was issued (to resolve gps epoch). )
