-GNSSMetrics.com is a web application designed to deliver comprehensive metrics and analysis for GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) testing. It processes Excel and CSV sheets containing latitude, longitude, and altitude data from static GNSS tests, calculating various metrics using both user-provided ground truth coordinates and the mean of the provided data.
+GNSSMetrics.com is a web application designed to deliver comprehensive metrics and analysis for GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) testing. It processes Excel and CSV sheets containing latitude, longitude, and altitude data from static GNSS tests, calculating various metrics using both user-provided ground truth coordinates and the mean of the provided data. Users can export their results in Excel and .kml formats for further custom analysis and visualization.
 
-## Features
+# Motivation?
+
+As a newbie in the world of GNSS technology, I found there were very few open-source resources to help generate metrics for my static tests. The ones available often required extra steps to prepare the data, which sometimes took hours, especially when analyzing multiple receivers at once. The goal of this web app is to simplify static GNSS analysis, making it more accessible and less time-consuming.

 ### Metrics Calculated:
 
-- **Maximum Fix Error**: \( \max \left( \text{distance}(\text{fix}, \text{ground truth}) \right) \)
-- **Minimum Fix Error**: \( \min \left( \text{distance}(\text{fix}, \text{ground truth}) \right) \)
-- **Average Fix Error**: \( \frac{1}{n} \sum\_{i=1}^{n} \text{distance}(\text{fix}\_i, \text{ground truth}) \)
-- **CEP 50%**: 2D accuracy with 50% confidence level.
-- **CEP 90%**: 2D accuracy with 90% confidence level.
-- **CEP 98%**: 2D accuracy with 98% confidence level.
+- **Maximum Fix Error**: The maximum distance between all fixes and the ground truth coordinates.
