longDescription = ''
gpsd is a service daemon that monitors one or more GPSes or AIS
receivers attached to a host computer through serial or USB ports,
making all data on the location/course/velocity of the sensors
available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the host computer. With
gpsd, multiple location-aware client applications (such as navigational
and wardriving software) can share access to receivers without
contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd responds to queries with a
format that is substantially easier to parse than the NMEA 0183 emitted
by most GPSes. The gpsd distribution includes a linkable C service
library, a C++ wrapper class, and a Python module that developers of
gpsd-aware applications can use to encapsulate all communication with
gpsd. Third-party client bindings for Java and Perl also exist.
Besides gpsd itself, the project provides auxiliary tools for
diagnostic monitoring and profiling of receivers and feeding
location-aware applications GPS/AIS logs for diagnostic purposes.
