This adds range_rate and range_rate_error fields (in m/s units) to the bearing object. These indicate the time derivative of the range field and its uncertainty or error. Signed-off-by: Daniel Estévez <[email protected]>

No objections, is sandboxed to an extension, and is a good idea. Merging. |

range_rateandrange_rate_errorfields (in m/s units) to the bearing object. These indicate the time derivative of the range field and its uncertainty or error.We're planning on using range-rate information for GNSS applications, and adding it to the spatial extension bearing object seems most natural, since it already has a range field. A range-rate field seems applicable in other contexts, specially when range-rate is measured via Doppler. Some examples that come to mind are radar and spacecraft navigation.
