NAME
gnss-share
DESCRIPTION
gnss-share is an app that facilitates sharing GNSS location data with multiple clients, while providing a
way to perform device-specific setup beforehand. For some devices, it can also manage loading and storing
A-GPS data.
CONCEPTS
gnss-share was originally created to allow multiplexing GNSS data from a single device to multiple
clients, and to facilitate loading/storing A-GPS data to and from the device. gnss-share effectively acts
as a proxy between the GNSS device and the clients, which allows controlling when and what location data
clients receive, as well as giving an opportunity to set time, rough location, etc on the device to
improve lock speed. Some external signals can be used to control gnss-share, see SIGNALS for more
information.
COMMANDS

SIGNALS
In addition to the command line options, this application will respond to the following signals when in
"server" mode:
SIGUSR1

file, and continue running afterward.
SIGUSR2
The application will store AGPS data to the directory agps_directory specified in the configuration
file, and continue running afterward.
