TopoSat Rinex Editor is a free utility for editing RINEX files (formats 2, 3 and 4) in order to analyse the constellations present, the satellites and signals used, and to modify some of the information held in the header. It can be used through a graphical interface or from the command line.
It is available in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese (Europe and Brazil).
Its strengths are:
- Analysis of the source file, with a summary display of that analysis.
- Export with specific constellations, satellites or signals disabled.
- Header ECEF coordinates that can be entered from geographic or projected coordinates (with or without a geoid model).
- Reading of online processing reports: IGN France, Trimble RTX, SCRS-PPP (Canada).
- Direct conversion of ECEF coordinates into geographic or projected coordinates.
- Display of those ECEF coordinates in a KML viewer, plus KML/KMZ export.
- Conversion of a RINEX 3 or 4 file to an earlier version.
It also allows the following changes:
- Recording interval.
- Start and end times of the recording.
- Marker Name, Marker Number and Marker Type.
- Observer / Agency.
- Antenna height.
After changing the time bounds, the recording interval and the constellations or satellites used, the size of the file to be exported is estimated (indicative value).
