NMEA input data with Navio2?

Navio / Edge Getting started

Hello!

I’m new to drone navigation and I have a student project where I have to use autonomous indoor navigation with a drone in known enviroments. So the point is to map the route beforehand and the drone would use it autonomously.

I intend to use Marvelmind navigation system and it sends NMEA formatted data as output from the external GPS. My question is, can Navio2 be used with Marvelmind? Is it compatible with NMEA formatted input data?

Sure. You’ll need to feed the stream to ArduPilot with either -E or -B switches when launching. NMEA is supported in ArduPilot.

Thanks for the quick response! I’m sure that here will be more questions when we get the set :grin:
