The Australian Government, through Positioning Australia (part of Geoscience Australia), is funding the design, development and operational service of a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) position correction system - the Ginan service and toolkit. The application of the Ginan correction service by a GNSS device has the potential to increase positioning accuracy from meters to centimetres across Australia. The suite of software systems in this repository (the Ginan toolkit) will be used to create the service. It is available now under an open source licence. Ginan will give individuals and organisations no-cost access to the Ginan software and service as a public good.
I went through the README from scratch on a Windows machine to check if the order of the instructions made sense. This PR is proposing to reorder parts of the README so that everything that a first time user needs to get ginan running is in one spot.
Getting started with Docker has been moved to the top. The AppImage is simple to use, but it does not have any example data so it's not easy for a user to run ginan for the first time.
mkdir ginan-data has been added in the docker instructions so that a user does not encounter an error that ${host_data_folder} does not exist
The downloads with getData.sh and getProducts.sh have been moved up to the Getting Started section from the Build section
Ready! section has been moved to Getting Started
Python tools instructions has been moved to the Getting Started section instead of Installation from source section
Mongodb has been disabled in all examples, because it's unlikely that a first time user will have mongodb running, and it's just another option that they're going to have to find and turn off
