Visualizing data is a great way to both derive insights and to validate the quality of a data set. There are a number of ways to draw plots in Python. Two of the popular libraries we use are: Matplotlib: a

My background is in estimation and integrated navigation systems. I also enjoy teaching and developing software tools for engineering analysis and design.

Inertial Sensor Performance Parameters
Navigation systems rarely have the benefit of directly measuring the information desired. The same can be said about the utility of navigation sensors. The desired state may be the position and terrain slope, but what is measured in simply the
Reference Data Sets
A fair amount of iterative testing goes into developing interconnected guidance, navigation, and control systems. While nothing can replace the insight that comes from testing the interconnected system, actual algorithm development for each sub-system is better done in isolation. For
