We developed an interactive web-based visualization tool to explore the dataset in greater detail and better understand the available machine signals. During this process, we discovered that the GNSS data covers a longer time period than the machine signal data. We discussed this issue with Sandvik, and they will investigate possible solutions to address the mismatch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"580\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2627sandvik\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/291\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-16-at-14.31.43-1024x580.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2627sandvik\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/291\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-16-at-14.31.43-1024x580.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2627sandvik\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/291\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-16-at-14.31.43-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2627sandvik\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/291\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-16-at-14.31.43-767x434.png 767w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2627sandvik\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/291\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-16-at-14.31.43-704x399.png 704w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2627sandvik\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/291\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-16-at-14.31.43-483x273.png 483w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2627sandvik\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/291\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-16-at-14.31.43-371x210.png 371w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2627sandvik\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/291\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-16-at-14.31.43-1536x870.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.ippd.ufl.edu\/blogs\/ay2627sandvik\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/291\/2026\/10\/Screenshot-2026-10-16-at-14.31.43-2048x1159.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, we are still waiting for the university&#8217;s approval of the Siemens software license.
