Longer ESA development intervals

2 eligible runs, totaling 393.4 minutes. They come from one development recording of the ESA/DTU airborne survey. Selection uses receiver timing, speed, distance, quality and valid covariance, before examining gyro values or fitting any physical candidate.

Run Duration Distance Mean ground speed Mean latitude Mean course Height range
1 298.6 min 1498.7 km 301.1 km/h 65.17° N 90.8° 356–3526 m
2 94.8 min 422.1 km 267.3 km/h 65.04° N 49.1° 402–1914 m

Mean course summarizes a changing path; these are not straight, level legs. The runs contain turns and climbs. Version 2 removes the quiet-motion veto because the intended method explicitly propagates aircraft motion from IMU samples. It does not certify unseen motion between receiver samples. The zero-eligible version-1 inventory remains unchanged.

Every admitted run lasts at least 20 minutes, travels at least 60 km and stays at or above 180 km/h at the receiver epochs. Reported quality, timing, complete IMU support and positive-definite full covariance are required. Receiver accuracy and the instrument sampling interpretation remain assumptions.

The one-pass inventory checks all 64,080 receiver epochs; 16,873 fail one or more epoch rules. Saved-only verification reconciles every epoch and interval, all CSV outputs and the original-source hash, plus the charged work journal. It reads no original recording and performs no model fit.

No ESA shape or background-field result follows from this inventory. The next study needs its own preselected interval, training/prediction split, working errors, physical accuracy checks and finite fit allowance. Seven separate confirmation groups remain protected.
