The log files from the Blueye drones are in essence a recording of the data that is
published over UDP stored as a comma-separated-value (CSV) file.
The rest of this page documents the most useful fields of the log files. The column
indices listed are zero-based. If you feel that some fields need more documentation,
feel free to open an issue
on Github, and we'll happily
supply the requested information.
