Where
I will be running gpsd in a docker container on Bellman to set up my Magnavox reference station.
gpsd home: http://gpsd.berlios.de/
I used to have extensive instructions on how to set up gpsd on an old Mac Book Pro. Now the instructions look like this, for now anyway.
docker pull forcedinductionz/docker-gpsd docker run -it -p 2947:2947 --device=/dev/ttyAMA0 forcedinductionz/docker-gpsd -D2 /dev/ttyAMA0
By using docker I avoid installation issues of getting it going on a Mac. I still have to configure it. Not able to do that at the moment. (My GPS receiver is packed in a box.)
What and why
gpsd is a service that listens to one or more gps receivers and makes the received data available over a network connection. It understands a wide variety of binary protocols.
Receivers
All the receivers I have currently are covered:
- DeLorme Earthmate
- Garmin
- NMEA
- SiRF
- Trimble TSIP
- UBX
What you get
Besides the daemon "gpsd", of course...
In /usr/local/bin, you will find
- lcdgps
- gpxlogger
- gpspipe
- gpsmon
- gpsdecode
- gpsctl
- cgps
Position
Time
Python integration
I need to put a short python script here...
