Direct browser-based UBX conversion

u-blox receivers (such as ZED-F9P, NEO-M8T, and compatible units logging raw .ubx) record compact proprietary binary .ubx files. Converting them typically requires vendor desktop tools. Flux parses UBX binaries in the cloud and extracts multi-frequency GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou observations.

Key conversion features

  • Automatic format and constellation detection from raw binary streams
  • Export to standard RINEX 2.11, 3.04, or 3.05 observation & navigation files
  • Optional Hatanaka compression (.crx) and gzip packaging on output
  • Preserves all raw phase, code, Doppler, and SNR observables (L1/L2/L5)
  • Immediate handoff to Crux for quality scoring or Apex for PPK post-processing

Batch conversion and workflow automation

Convert single drone flight logs or batch-process hundreds of CORS reference station logs. Business users can also automate UBX-to-RINEX conversion via the REST API.

How to convert u-blox UBX files to RINEX online

Extract multi-band RINEX observations from u-blox ZED-F9P, NEO-M8T, or compatible binary logs, with nothing to install.

  1. Upload .ubx binary file

    Select the raw .ubx file recorded with UBX-RXM-RAWX and UBX-RXM-SFRBX messages enabled.

  2. Set output RINEX format

    Choose RINEX 3.04 (recommended for multi-band RTK/PPK) or RINEX 2.11.

  3. Process in cloud

    Flux parses all constellation tracking channels (GPS, GLO, GAL, BDS) and signal frequencies (L1/L2/L5).

  4. Download observation deliverables

    Download converted .obs and .nav files immediately for PPP or PPK baselines.

What won't produce a result

Worth checking before you upload, so a run doesn't cost you credits to tell you what your data was missing.

A .ubx log recorded with only navigation-solution messages, not the raw measurement messages

Raw measurement logging (UBX-RXM-RAWX and UBX-RXM-SFRBX) turned on before recording. A file with only position output carries no carrier phase or code observations to convert.

A file that has already been re-saved or partially copied by another tool rather than the receiver's own raw output

The original .ubx binary exactly as the receiver wrote it. A re-exported or partial copy can be missing the header bytes the converter reads to identify each message.

Common questions

Does it support dual-frequency multi-band UBX files?

Yes. Multi-frequency logs from ZED-F9P, F9T, and F9R with L1/L2/L5 signals across GPS, GLO, GAL, and BDS are fully supported.

Can I convert UBX files recorded from UAVs / drones?

Yes. High-rate (5Hz, 10Hz, 20Hz) kinematic rover logs from RTK/PPK drones are fully supported.
