Avangardo GPS generator PRO
-
Version
3.3.0
Use GPS without GPS receiver! Try this advanced GPS
device simulator (virtual GPS receiver). It can be
used for development purposes or for testing GPS
software before buying. Generates NMEA messages from
different data inputs (map or file). Generated NMEA
data can be used by mapping or other GPS enabled
software . GPS simulator can be helpful not only for
software developers, but also for users, who want to
learn navigation software before buying GPS receiver.
This virtual GPS receiver can operate without GPS
satellites visible and therefore it can be more
effective than hardware GPS receiver indoor. Virtual
COM port software (virtual null-modem) can be found on
web site http://avangardo.com/com.
The "pro" (professional) version of the "GPS
Generator" has some advanced features in comparison

* It supports not only *.shp files (ESRI shape files),
but also *.mif files (MapInfo exchange) as a map
layer;
* Altitude value can be changed;
* The satellites constellation (PRN, azimuth,
elevation, SNR) can be assigned and viewed;
* Dilution of precision factors (PDOP, HDOP, VDOP) can
be assigned;
* 2D/3D selection mode can be changed
(manual/automatic);
* Position fix mode can be selected (2d/3d/not
defined);
* Support of other NMEA protocol messages: GGA, GLL,
RMC, GSA, GSV, VTG;
* NMEA CRC of an expression can be calcutated;
* "Moving map" mode;
* Toggle between different NMEA-0183 releases (2.0-
3.0);
* Packet data transmission mode (NMEA messages are
grouped in packets. All messages in one packet are
sent all at one time);
* Random data transmission mode (random NMEA message
is generated);
* Send data through Bluetooth to other devices;
