Talk:NMEA 0183

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Currently, the article doesn't explain how raw GPS satellite data is converted into a stream of NMEA 0183 data and how this stream contains information about where on the world this GPS receiver currently is. I think this would be a great addition to this article, as GPS localization is the most important use of NMEA 0183. --Abdull 09:39, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

The proper place for that discussion is in the GPS article; once the GPS receiver has done it's magic, formatting the results is trivial. NMEA is used for things other than GPS, too, so an "in depth" (pardon the pun) description belongs elsewhere. --Wtshymanski 17:53, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
