Remote capture GPS #196

Open ardevd opened 4 years ago

ardevd commented 4 years ago

Is remote capture GPS still on the to-do list? I know you can set a fixed position but if I have a GPS receiver plugged into the sensor it would be useful to use it.

It's on the list, but will require changes to the capture protocol as well as writing custom gps interfaces for all the supported gps types; i have no eta and it's currently not under development. Generally, remote capture is orthogonal to non-static GPS, because all packets are streamed from the remote source; you generally can't do it with something that doesn't have a constant connection.

You could totally have mobile remote sources with 4G connectivity for example.

Really could have used it in a specific scenario but it’s good to hear it’s still on the to do list. I mean if you’re doing remote packet capture on mobile platforms it’d be reasonable to expect it’s got a stable always on connection. I had no issues streaming back live info to a cloud server in an area with a terrible connection and it still worked well.
