Add Heading Output #10

Open JackNewman12 opened 2 years ago

It would be nice if the output nmea data included heading information. I think having the heading based on that last/next point is probably enough.

Loving the tool! Thanks.

@JackNewman12 Would the bearing angle at any given point be enough for what you're trying to achieve? That information is already present in the RMC sentences.

Sorry I wrote this ticket at the end of the day and I realized I didn't really explain anything. I have an old legacy system from another company that only accepts headings from HDT, locations from GLL and timestamps from ZDA.

Which means I'd love to have a list of additional output types I can select to be included in the NMEA output.
