[ENHANCEMENT] Access gps calculated speed values and other NMEA GPS data #65

Open midasgossye opened 3 years ago

Would it be possible to extract more information from the GPS module instead of just lat/lon? I'm assuming the GPS module returns info like altitude, speed etc as well via the internal UART, although I'm not entirely sure...

Yes, you may currently run gps.on() and then open UART(1) to see the NMEA output. I'm assuming it is standard.
