Virtual GPS 1.34
GPS simulator
application
Virtual
GPS is a GPS (Global Positioning System) simulator software.
You can use it to simulate a GPS receiver unit connected to
your computer. It's ideal when you need GPS input, but you have
no signal or you can use it to test your GPS applications. It
supports various NMEA 0183 sentences, so it can be used with
any GPS mapping software. NMEA 0183 (or NMEA for short) is a
combined electrical and data specification for communication
between marine electronic devices such as echo sounder, sonars,
Anemometer (winds speed and direction), gyrocompass, autopilot,
GPS receivers and many other types of instruments. It has been
defined by, and is controlled by, the US-based National Marine
Electronics Association.
Supported NMEA sentences: GPGLL, GPGGA, GPVTG, GPRMC, GPGSA,
GPGSV, GPZDA, GPWPL, GPRTE, GPAAM.
It operates
in two modes: simulator mode and file mode. In simulator mode
the latitude and longitude coordinates are periodically incremented
with a defined step. In file mode the GPS data is loaded from
a text file which contains NMEA 0183 sentences.
The GPS data is transmitted periodically to a serial port (UDP
ports are also supported). To get the output of the simulator,
you can use a null-modem cable which interconnects two physical
serial ports or you can use one of the virtual serial port software
from the market, which simulate two interconnected serial ports
like: Virtual
Null Modem, Virtual
Serial Port Driver, Virtual
Serial Port Kit, Advanced
Virtual Com Port and others. Another possible application
of the software is to broadcast the output of the simulator
through bluetooth.
