Decrease GPS Location Fix Sensitivity #82

Closed keenanjohnson closed 2 years ago

keenanjohnson commented 2 years ago

Our current GPS software is very basic and just reads whatever the GPS sensors says.

In practice, the GPS sensors can gain and lose GPS location fix quite often due to clouds, etc.

It seems like it would be wise to improve the software slightly to remember the previous GPS location (since boot up) and publish a datapoint using that if a current fix is not available.

I started implementing something in the persistant_gps branch.
