This thesis presents the design, implementation and description ofa Data_Logger for the Suitcase Navigation
System. All the programs andexamplespresented in this thesis were implemented in the Ada programming language,
which has sucessfully incorporated the low_level I/O ports communication with the high_level abstraction. The
software is portable as desired and can be reused by LCCDS when needed.
