Project Description

gpsd is a daemon that listens to a GPS or Loran receiver and translates the positional data into a simplified format that can be more easily used by other programs, like chart plotters. The package comes with a sample client that plots the location of the currently visible GPS satellites (if available) and a speedometer. It can also use DGPS/ip.

Many changes were made, perhaps the most obvious being the switch from the GPL to the BSD license to facilitate commercial use. Drivers have been updated. Regular regression testing and automated audits with valgrind, splint, and code analyzers are performed. Unbounded string functions have been eliminated. Performance and reliability is improved. New optimizations were made for embedded deployments. Higher integrity data handling was implemented. New client programs have been added. The gpsd on-the-wire protocol has changed; hand-rolled parsers should be verified against the documentation.
