Roy,
Thanks! Please do think on them. The same yaw-ish offset is seen in

>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Regarding Steve's proposals for new names, the discussion

>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Until now, our usual explanatory sentence for 'platform' has

>>>>>>>>> to, satellites, aeroplanes, ships, instruments, and buoys.'
>>>>>>>>> I've added this into the definitions of Steve's names, leading
>>>>>>>>> to:
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> platform_heave (m)
>>>>>>>>> 'Standard names for "platform" describe the motion and
>>>>>>>>> orientation of the vehicle from which observations are made.
>>>>>>>>> Platforms include, but are not limited to, satellites,

>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> These two names are accepted for publication in the standard

>>>>>>>>> (A quick search of other online sources yields definitions
>>>>>>>>> consistent with these).
>>>>>>>>> Pitch
>>>>>>>>> The up/down rotation of a platform about its transverse/Y
>>>>>>>>> axis. The transverse/Y axis, lateral or pitch axis is an
>>>>>>>>> imaginary line running horizontally across the platform and
>>>>>>>>> through its center of gravity. A pitch motion is an up-or-down
>>>>>>>>> movement of the bow and stern of the platform.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Roll
>>>>>>>>> The tilting rotation of a platform about its longitudinal/X
>>>>>>>>> axis. The longitudinal/X axis, or roll axis, is an imaginary
>>>>>>>>> line running horizontally through the length of the platform,
>>>>>>>>> through its center of gravity, and parallel to the waterline.
>>>>>>>>> A roll motion is a side-to-side or port-starboard tilting
>>>>>>>>> motion of the superstructure around this axis.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Yaw
>>>>>>>>> The turning rotation of a platform about its vertical/Z axis.
>>>>>>>>> The vertical/Z axis, or yaw axis, is an imaginary line running
>>>>>>>>> vertically through the platform and through its center of
>>>>>>>>> gravity. A yaw motion is a side-to side movement of the bow
>>>>>>>>> and stern of the ship.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> These are useful and concise definitions. I suggest that we
>>>>>>>>> don't refer anywhere to 'ship', 'bow' or 'stern', since we
>>>>>>>>> want the definitions to apply to all possible platforms. I'm
>>>>>>>>> thinking also that 'port' and 'starboard' may apply to ships
>>>>>>>>> and aeroplanes, but perhaps not to a satellite, so are
>>>>>>>>> probably best avoided. Similarly, 'waterline' only applies to
>>>>>>>>> maritime platforms. I suggest the following amendments to make
>>>>>>>>> the definitions as generic as possible:
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Pitch
>>>>>>>>> "Pitch" means rotation of the platform in the vertical plane
>>>>>>>>> about its transverse/Y axis. The transverse/Y axis, also known
>>>>>>>>> as the "lateral axis" or "pitch axis", is an imaginary line
>>>>>>>>> running horizontally across the platform and through its
>>>>>>>>> center of gravity. In pitch motion, the leading edge of the
>>>>>>>>> platform moves vertically upwards while the rear moves
>>>>>>>>> vertically downwards, and vice versa.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Roll
>>>>>>>>> "Roll" means rotation of the platform in the vertical plane
>>>>>>>>> about its longitudinal/X axis. The longitudinal/X axis, also
>>>>>>>>> known as the "roll axis", is an imaginary line running
>>>>>>>>> horizontally through the length of the platform and through
>>>>>>>>> its center of gravity. In roll motion, the platform tilts such
>>>>>>>>> that one side moves vertically upwards while the other moves
>>>>>>>>> vertically downwards, and vice versa.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Yaw
>>>>>>>>> "Yaw" means rotation of the platform in the horizontal plane
>>>>>>>>> about its vertical/Z axis. The vertical/Z axis, also known as
>>>>>>>>> the "yaw axis", is an imaginary line running vertically
>>>>>>>>> through the platform and through its center of gravity. In yaw
>>>>>>>>> motion, the platform rotates clockwise or counter clockwise in
>>>>>>>>> the horizontal, relative to its orientation, which has the
>>>>>>>>> standard name platform_orientation.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Are these okay?
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> For names such as platform_view_angle and
>>>>>>>>> platform_zenith_angle we also describe how the angle itself is
>>>>>>>>> measured. We should do the same for pitch, roll and yaw angles
>>>>>>>>> while we are in the process of updating the definitions. I
>>>>>>>>> have come up with the following:
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Pitch angle
>>>>>>>>> Platform pitch angle is the angle between the local horizontal
>>>>>>>>> and the platform's longitudinal/X axis. Zero pitch angle means
>>>>>>>>> the longitudinal axis is horizontal. The usual sign convention
>>>>>>>>> is that pitch angle is measured positive when the front or
>>>>>>>>> leading edge of the platform is elevated above the horizontal,
>>>>>>>>> negative when it is below the horizontal.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Roll angle
>>>>>>>>> Platform roll angle is the angle between the local horizontal
>>>>>>>>> and the platform's lateral/Y axis. Zero roll angle means the
>>>>>>>>> lateral axis is horizontal. The usual sign convention is that
>>>>>>>>> roll angle is measured positive when the right hand edge of
>>>>>>>>> the platform (when viewing towards the orientation direction
>>>>>>>>> or "front" of the platform) is elevated above the horizontal,
>>>>>>>>> negative when it is below the horizontal.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Yaw angle
>>>>>>>>> Platform yaw angle is the angle between the platform's
>>>>>>>>> longitudinal/X axis and the direction of travel. Zero yaw
>>>>>>>>> angle means the longitudinal axis is aligned with the
>>>>>>>>> direction of travel, or a reference direction if the platform
>>>>>>>>> is stationary. The usual sign convention is that yaw angle is
>>>>>>>>> measured positive when the front or leading edge of the
>>>>>>>>> platform is rotated clockwise from its orientation (which has
>>>>>>>>> the standard name platform_orientation).
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> Just so we can see a couple of examples of pulling all this
>>>>>>>>> together, I've written out the full revised definitions of
>>>>>>>>> platform platform_pitch_angle and platform_pitch_rate below.
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>> platform_pitch_angle (degree)
>>>>>>>>> 'Standard names for "platform" describe the motion and
