gpsd is a service daemon that monitors one or more GPSes attached to
|
|
|
|
|
a host computer through serial or USB ports, making all data on the
|
|
|
|
|
location/course/velocity available to be queried on TCP port 2947
|
|
|
|
|
of the host computer. With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications
|
|
|
|
|
(such as navigational and wardriving software) can share access to
|
|
|
|
|
GPSes without contention or loss of data.

Applications that presently use gpsd include pyGPS, Kismet, GPSdrive,
|
|
|
|
|
gpeGPS, position, roadmap, roadnav, and gaia.
