Maurik, Quoting the docs: "Track type encoder. The strategy (S) and GBL flag (G) are packed as follows: Note that Z denotes zero ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZGSSSSS" The strategy type can be found here: http://www.lcsim.org/sites/hps/apidocs/org/hps/recon/tracking/StrategyType .html The sixth bit denotes whether the track is a GBL track or not. You can use the classes StrategyType and TrackType to decode the track type. If all you care about whether a track is seed or GBL, then just do the check you mentioned in your previous email.
