Package ist.palcom.services.location.palgpsparser Description

Facilitates parsing of raw GPS NMEA sentences into latitude/longitude pairs (GPS positions).

Package Specification

The output from the GpsService is in the raw NMEA format. These sentences needs to be processed in order to obtain a readable GPS position (a latitude, longitude pair). The GPSParserService is capable of doing just that.

If you need to convert the latitude/longitude pair to another format, take a look at the GeoConverterService.

A convenience class GPSParserDevice exists, that will start a PalCom device on which a single GPSParserService is running.
