# pinephone GPS happens in EG25 modem
|
|
# serial control interface to modem is /dev/ttyUSB2
|
|
# after enabling GPS, readout is /dev/ttyUSB1
|
|
#
|
|
# minimal process to enable modem and GPS:
|
|
# - `echo 1 > /sys/class/modem-power/modem-power/device/powered`
|
|
# - `screen /dev/ttyUSB2 115200`
|
|
# - `AT+QGPSCFG="nmeasrc",1`
|
|
# - `AT+QGPS=1`
|
|
#
|
|
# now, something like `gpsd` can directly read from /dev/ttyUSB1.
|
|
#
|
|
# initial GPS fix can take 15+ minutes.
|
|
# meanwhile, services like eg25-manager can speed this up by uploading assisted GPS data to the modem.
|
|
#
|
|
# geoclue somehow fits in here as a geospatial provider that leverages GPS and also other sources like radio towers
|
|
#
|
|
# support:
|
|
# - geoclue, gnome-maps
|
|
# - irc: #gnome-maps on irc.gimp.org
|
|
# - Matrix: #gnome-maps:gnome.org (unclear if bridged to IRC)
|
|
#
|
|
# programs to pair this with:
|
|
# - `satellite-gtk`: <https://codeberg.org/tpikonen/satellite>
|
|
# - shows/tracks which satellites the GPS is connected to; useful to understand fix characteristics
|
|
# - `gnome-maps`: uses geoclue, has route planning
|
|
# - `mepo`: uses gpsd, minimalist, flaky, and buttons are kinda hard to activate on mobile
|
|
# - puremaps?
|
|
# - osmin?
|
|
#
|
|
# future work:
|
|
# - integrate with [wigle](https://www.wigle.net/) for offline equivalent to Mozilla Location Services
