1//! RTCM 3 differential-GNSS stream decoding and encoding.
2//!
3//! RTCM 10403.x ("RTCM Standard for Differential GNSS Services, Version 3") is
4//! the dominant wire format for real-time GNSS correction and observation
5//! streams: base-station observations, reference coordinates, antenna metadata,
6//! and broadcast ephemerides flow from a caster to a rover as a sequence of
7//! framed binary messages. This module is a sans-I/O codec for that stream,
8//! built to the same shape as the crate's RINEX / SP3 / IONEX parsers:
9//!
10//! 1. a forgiving byte-level frame layer ([`framing`]) that syncs on the `0xD3`
11//!    preamble, reads the 10-bit length, and verifies the 24-bit CRC-24Q;
12//! 2. a format-agnostic canonical IR ([`Message`] and its typed variants) that
13//!    stores each field as its raw transmitted integer; and
14//! 3. an encoder that turns the IR back into bytes, so a decode followed by an
15//!    encode round-trips byte-for-byte.
16//!
17//! ## Message coverage
18//!
19//! Decoded and encoded:
20//!
21//! | Message            | Numbers                                  | IR type |
22//! |--------------------|------------------------------------------|---------|
23//! | MSM4 observations  | 1074 / 1084 / 1094 / 1104 / 1114 / 1124 / 1134 | [`MsmMessage`] |
24//! | MSM7 observations  | 1077 / 1087 / 1097 / 1107 / 1117 / 1127 / 1137 | [`MsmMessage`] |
25//! | Station coordinates| 1005 / 1006                              | [`StationCoordinates`] |
26//! | Antenna / receiver | 1007 / 1008 / 1033                       | [`AntennaDescriptor`] |
27//! | GPS ephemeris      | 1019                                     | [`GpsEphemeris`] |
28//! | GLONASS ephemeris  | 1020                                     | [`GlonassEphemeris`] |
29//!
30//! Any other message number is preserved losslessly as [`Message::Unsupported`]
31//! (its raw body is kept so the frame still round-trips). Deferred message types
32//! include the other MSM variants (MSM1/2/3/5/6), the legacy L1/L1-L2
33//! observation messages (1001-1004, 1009-1012), the network-RTK and SSR
34//! correction families, and the Galileo / BeiDou / QZSS ephemerides
35//! (1042-1046). They decode as `Unsupported` rather than erroring.
36//!
37//! ## Quick start
38//!
39//! ```
40//! use sidereon_core::rtcm::{self, Message, StationCoordinates};
41//!
42//! // Build a 1006 reference-coordinate message and frame it.
43//! let station = StationCoordinates {
44//!     message_number: 1006,
45//!     reference_station_id: 2003,
46//!     itrf_realization_year: 0,
47//!     gps_indicator: true,
48//!     glonass_indicator: true,
49//!     galileo_indicator: false,
50//!     reference_station_indicator: false,
51//!     ecef_x: 11_446_021_400,
52//!     single_receiver_oscillator: false,
53//!     reserved: false,
54//!     ecef_y: -7_415_136_500,
55//!     quarter_cycle_indicator: 0,
56//!     ecef_z: 12_602_528_900,
57//!     antenna_height: Some(15_000),
58//! };
59//! // A constructed message encodes either directly on the typed value or
60//! // through the [`Message`] wrapper; both produce the same body bytes.
61//! let body = station.encode();
62//! assert_eq!(body, Message::StationCoordinates(station).encode());
63//! let frame = rtcm::encode_frame(&body).unwrap();
64//!
65//! // Decode it back out of the framed stream.
66//! let decoded = rtcm::decode_messages(&frame);
67//! assert_eq!(decoded.len(), 1);
68//! match &decoded[0] {
69//!     Message::StationCoordinates(s) => assert_eq!(s.reference_station_id, 2003),
70//!     _ => panic!("expected station coordinates"),
71//! }
