Fdxread and Openplotter integration #10

Open ygageot opened 7 years ago

ygageot commented 7 years ago

I wrote for me an Openplotter tool to integrate easyly Fdxread. This small tool can be run automatically at Opentool startup, integrate it for non-geeks and it feeds the Openplotter system with NMEA output via UDP for these first version.

I had hesitations to integrate directly Fdxread SignalK output because I don't know if the quality is equivalent to NMEA. @lkarsten what is your opinion ?

@lkarsten , if you agree and other users are interested , I can push this tool to the Openplotter source site with your references. It can be interesting to gain new test users.

Hey Gageot, I like your idea, have you allready pushed it to the openplotter source?

Still relevant five years after the bug report was opened? :)

I'm all for anyone using fdxread for anything they want.

Integrating it into a bigger whole for easier adaptation/use sounds great.

As far as I remember the signalk output was very much work in progress. I don't think I fed it to the signalk server at all, just wrote it from the specs. All my "real" use for it was with the NMEA0183 formatter/output.
