Constructor Detail

SensorGPS

public SensorGPS()

Ctor. Sensor type describes particular subject about which we want to know about. It is used to distinguish incoming message from the server.

Method Detail

getLatitude

public Latitude getLatitude()

‘int’, ’double’, ’char’ provide the latitude degree, minute (as a decimal), and cardinal description (i.e. ‘N’ or ‘S’), respectively. There are only two possible values for the ‘char’ parameter: ‘N’ for North and ‘S’ for South.

Returns:

Returns Latitude value of the sensor.

getLongitude

public Longitude getLongitude()

‘int’, ’float’, ’char’ provide the longitude degree, minute (as a decimal), and cardinal description (i.e. ‘E’ or ‘W’), respectively. There are only two possible values for the ‘char’ parameter: ‘E’ for East and ‘W’ for West.

Returns:

Returns Longitude value of the sensor.

getFix

public int getFix()

‘int’ indicates whether or not a position was acquired. The fix is the same as the GGA format. Namely, a value of 0 means that the GPS sensor failed to acquire a position and a value of 1 means that a position was acquired.

Returns:

Returns 0 - failed to acquire a position or 1 - success.

getSatellites

public int getSatellites()

‘int’ gives the number of satellites tracked by the GPS sensor. This number is an inexplicit source of accuracy. The more satellites are tracked, the higher the position accuracy.

Returns:

Returns number of active GPS satellite connections.
