 Station identifier of sender
40-4716-9 Destination Identifier
8
 Station identifier of receiver

Description
Comments
1-10 Nationality
10
 Two-letter country codes according to ISO 3166 standard Each letter is coded in ASCII with 5 bits (the two MSBs are masked), for example: 
'A' is coded as 0b00001
'Z' is coded as 0b11010
Undefined nationality is coded as 0b1111111111
11-34 Latitude
24
Latitude in 90/8388607 deg  increments (range +/-90 deg)
North = positive (as per 2's complement),
South = negative (as per 2's complement).
The value 8388608 (0x800000 in hexadecimal) is not defined as a Latitude value. Can be used to code an error condition.
(see Note 1)
35-59 Longitude
25
Longitude in 90/8388607 deg increments (range +/-180 deg)
East = positive (as per 2's complement),
West = negative (as per 2's complement).
Longitude.
The value 16777216 (0x1000000 in hexadecimal) is not defined as a Longitude value. Can be used to code an error condition.
(see Note 1)
60-72 Depth
13
 Value in [m] with 1 [m] resolution Depth_encoded is the bit pattern that encodes the Depth value in [m]. 
depth_encoded = depth
For depth >= 8191 [m], depth_encoded = 8191, No Depth available.
73-81 Speed
9
 Value in [kn] with 0.1 [kn] resolution. Mapping Rules
value_float is the actual Speed value in [kn].
value_int is the bit pattern that codes the Speed value (written as an integer in decimal notation).
Integer to Volume [kn] conversion:
value_float =  value_int * 0.1
Float [kn] to integer conversion:
value_int =  round(value_float * 10.0)
For value_float >= 51.1 [kn], value_int = 511, No Speed available.
Round towards nearest integer (rounding halfway cases away from zero)
82-90 Heading
9
 
0..359.55 deg
(in 0.705 deg increments)
Mapped according to:
Code          Value [deg]
-------------------------
   0             0
   1             0.705
   :             :
 510           359.55
 511           n.a.
 -------------------------
The Heading value is coded with a Uniform Quantization.
Mapping Rules
value_float is the actual Heading value in [deg].
value_int is the bit pattern that codes the Heading value (written as an integer in decimal notation).
Integer to heading [deg] conversion:
value_float = value_int * 0.705
For value_int = 511 No Heading Available

Float [deg] to integer conversion:
Round towards nearest integer (rounding halfway cases away from zero)
value_int = round(value_float/0.705)
91-96 Padding
6
 Bit padding to align to byte and then compute CRC
97-112 CRC16
16
 CRC16 
(X^16 + X^15 + X^2 + 1)
