Detailed Description

Abstract class for a GPS system.

All drivers should implement this, making it simple to add support for different drivers.

Initialization is assumed to be performed in the constructor.

This guy is not guaranteed to be thread-safe!

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum hydrointerfaces::Gps::PositionType

Gps position types. Using Novatel codes here is probably not the best thing. With more thought it's probably possible to categorize these position types into more generic categories. For now, non-Novatel receivers should use the generic types listed first.

Enumerator:

GpsPositionTypeNotAvailable	Invalid or not available.
GpsPositionTypeAutonomous	Autonomous position (This is the normal case for non-differential GPS)
GpsPositionTypeDifferential	Differentially corrected.
