gpxlogger - Tool to connect to gpsd and generate a GPX file

Arguments

       By default, clients collect data from the local gpsd daemon running on localhost, using the default GPSD
       port 2947. The optional argument to any client may override this behavior: [server[:port[:device]]]

       For further explanation, and examples, see the ARGUMENTS section in the gps(1) man page

Description

gpslogger program collects fixes from gpsd and logs them to standard output in GPX format, an XML profile
       for track logging. It does not need to run as root, but can run as root.

       The output may be composed of multiple tracks. A new track is created if there’s no fix written for an
       interval specified by the -i or --interval option and defaulting to 5 seconds.

       gpxlogger can use any of the export methods that gpsd supports. For a list of these methods, use the -l
       or --exports option. To force a method, give the -e, --export option folloed by one of the
       colon-terminated method names from the -l, --exports table.

Name

       gpxlogger - Tool to connect to gpsd and generate a GPX file

Options

-?, -h, --help
           Print a summary of options and then exit.

       -d, --daemonize
           Run as a daemon in background. It requires the -f,--output option, which directs output to a
           specified logfile.

       -DLVL, --debugLVL
           Sets the debug level, it is primarily for troubleshooting. It enables various progress messages to
           standard error.

       -eMETHOD, --exportMETHOD
           If D-Bus support is available on the host, GPSD is configured to use it, and -edbus, or --exportdbus is specified, this program listens to DBUS broadcasts from gpsd via org.gpsd.fix.

           With -esockets, or if sockets is the method defaulted to, you may give a [server[:port[:device]]]
           specification as arguments. See the ARGUMENTS section below for more details.

           With -eshm,--exportshm this program will listen to the local gpsd using shared memory.

       -FINFILE, --fileinINFILE
           Read gpsd JSON from file INFILE, instead of from a gpsd daemon.

       -g, --garmin
           Enable Garmin extensions to GPX format. This allows depth to also be logged in the gpx output. Not
           compatible with Google maps.

       -iSECONDS, --intervalSECONDS
           A new track is created if there’s no fix written for an interval of SECONDS. Defaulting to 5 seconds.

       -l, --exports
           List all possible options for -e,--export.

       -mMINMOVE, --minmoveMINMOVE
           Sets a minimum move distance in meters (it may include a fractional decimal part). Motions shorter
           than this will not be logged.

       -oOUTFILE, --outputOUTFILE
           Output the GPX logg to file file OUTFILE, instead of to stdout..

       -r, --reconnect
           Retry when GPSd loses the fix. Without -r, gpxlogger would quit in this case.

       -V, --version
           Dump the package version and exit.
