Request MQTT Connection to PointPerfect #60

Open DrawQuick opened 1 year ago

DrawQuick commented 1 year ago

Would it be possible to add an MQTT client so that Bluetooth GNSS would have an additional option to use Pointperfect in place of an NTRip. This would provide users with a low cost rtk correction service which has a large service area. Currently, RTK2Go has very few base stations within a reasonable distance in rural areas and paid rtk services are too expensive for occasional use by individuals and also do not support rural areas. Thank you

Hello,

Seems very interesting. I've used mqtt in the past but never used pointpetfect, does it carry the same ntrip payload? will it work with my ardusimple ublox f9? are there any servers that I can use for testing?

Good morning Ykasidit, Here is a link to PointPerfect which describes it's capabilities. The cost to create a location service at the low end is $3.90us for 60 hours per month. There are a number of other packages. They have MQTT built in to U-Center but that only runs on Windows. They also provide a python script but I could not figure out how to use it on My Android phone using Bluetooth, Mock Location and Qfield as the app. I use Bluetooth GNSS and Qfield with my U-Blox F9P development board.

https://www.u-blox.com/en/product/pointperfect

It is fully compatible with the ublox9
