JavaGPS
Information Page
Introduction
The JavaGPS package enables Java applications to talk to
attached GPS devices that conform to the NMEA0183 protocol.
JavaGPS has the following key features:
- Auto-detection
of attached GPS device
- Recording
and playback of GPS data
Supports raw GPS logs and has an optimised log file format. JavaGPS converts
between the two formats on the fly.
- VRMI
(WhereAmI) API
Supports trigger callbacks based on time (i.e. every 5 seconds, user does
not move for 60 seconds) or location (i.e. if user enters or leaves a
given region).
- Management
GUI
Displays current location in a map, GPS can be set up, log records can be
started or logs can be played back and traced graphically.
- Conversion between earth dates and
ellipsoids, and conversion from and to Gauss-Krueger coordinate system
JavaGPS emerged from the projects
I worked on at the International University in
Germany.
