What is Hs in GPS data?

So looking at the GPS data file stored on the SD card:
Hb is altitude in meters, but what is Hs? I can't see any corolation to flying and what it is

Thanks.

Horizontal speed? Just guessing since mine isn't here yet.

That would sound obvious, but I'm seeing times where I'm ascending and it doesn't move. (but altitude IS changing - according to Hb.)

Are you going straight up when that happens?

Yep. There's times when it does appear that it's vertical speed, and times when it's not. I can't see any corolation between movement and the numbers.

This is the VPS sensor height. Strange values depending on VPS is ON or OFF.
Hb = barometric height

So the VPS only is effective for a few feet, right? So maybe that's why I only see a distance of like 4-5 feet from it, then 0?

I wont say the value is somewhat random when the quad is above VPS range (from 0 to 3 m) but it seems to be.
I'm flying only outside for the moment, I set VPS to OFF. Usually, when the quad is above 70m height, having an horizontal speed or not, I always have 25,5 for Hs. And sometimes I have this value above 40 or 50m.
Horizontal speed is only available in the flight log, not in the subtitle file.
