[GIS] a .ssf file

gpsssftrimble

What exactly is a .ssf file?
I am refering to the .ssf files used with Trimble GPS units.
I am aware that it is some sort of post processing correction file, but I do not know more than that.

SSF is an acronym for Trimble's proprietary "Standard Storage Format" file.

Trimble Standard Storage Format (SSF) [...] describe coordinate geometry [...] information from Trimble TerraSync™ field software and GPS Pathfinder Office software.
