[GIS] Syntax problem: Streaming GNSS Data from u-blox LEA-6H using str2str of RTKLIB not possible

gpslinuxrtklib

Im trying to readout the data from my ublox LEA-6H recever over RTKLIB's str2str command-line user interface (CUI). Im using rtkkib_2.4.2 on ubuntu 16.04.02 and the ublox receiver is connected over usb. im trying the following

sudo ./str2str -in serial://ttyUSB0:38400#ubx –out file://~/test.txt#ubx

i get the errormsg:

specify output stream(s)

how can i understand the documentation of rtklib. it says the following:

Best Answer

Your shell is possibly interpreting the hashes in your command as comments. This might work better:

./str2str -in 'serial://ttyUSB0:38400#ubx'  ...

Also - are you using the right device specification? Additionally, using ~ with sudo might be problematic. Add yourself to the dialout group (or whatever group /dev/ttyUSB0 belongs to) so you can access the serial port without elevated privileges.

Check out the rotate features OpenLayers example.

Moving a features works in the same way but using move, e.g.:

var vectorLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Simple Geometry");
// create a point feature
var point = new OpenLayers.Geometry.Point(-110, 45);
pointFeature = new OpenLayers.Feature.Vector(point, null, style_blue);

map.addLayer(vectorLayer);
map.setCenter(new OpenLayers.LonLat(point.x, point.y), 5);
vectorLayer.addFeatures([pointFeature]);

// move the point one unit up and redraw            
window.setInterval(function() {
    pointFeature.geometry.move(0, map.getResolution() * 1);
    pointFeature.layer.drawFeature(pointFeature);
}, 100);

[GIS] Base station for RTK-GPS using RTKLib

To go back to the basics of GPS positioning, you need to know the distance between the receiver antenna and each of the satellites the receiver is tracking. You need a minimum of 4 satellites to determine your position.

The distance antenna-satellite is equal to a number of full wavelengths plus a partial wavelength.

The receiver can only measure the last wave, or actually the partial wavelength.

The ambiguity is the number of full wavelengths separating the antenna from the satellite. So resolving the ambiguity is determining the number of full wavelengths.
