NMEA-0183 message: DP (Dynamic Positioning)

Proprietary Fugro message

The resulting message is shorter than the maximum defined message length of 82 characters, even with mm level resolution in Latitude/Longitude.

$PFUGDP,GG,hhmmss.ss, ddmm.mmmmm,N, dddmm.mmmmm,E, NN,Q,DD,aa.a,bb.b,ddd,rr.r

An example of the DP message string is:

$PFUGDP,GN,033615.00,3953.88002,N,10506.75324,W,13,9,FF,0.1,0.1,149,0.1*13
