    This is the Velocity VS. Time plot from June 30, 2010 at 2pm in which the velocity of the Savitsky does not match with the radial velocity along the entire time. This is because the boat was not drive towards and away to the antenna all the time. As an example the time of 2:25pm was look in the GPS data to find the corresponding coordinates in the boat path.

    Here is shown were was the boat at this time. It clearly seen that it has a component of the velocity vector and because of that, the boat speed is different.

    This is the plot of Velocity VS. Time from Savitsky’s GPS boat path on July 13, 2010. The velocity match very well with the radio velocity computed by the MATLAB code using the doppler shift. This is because the boat was moving towards and away from the antenna and the velocity of the boat should be the same of the radial velocity.

    This is the boat path related to this data.
