Stream data from Reach RS rover using a Java based application

[hugh.boys]

Hello, thank you for your time in advance.

I have a reach rs with base and rover, and need to transfer live gps data from the rover unit directly to a laptop computer. I want to know if I can stream the gps data through a java based application. The laptop can connect to the rover with WiFi or through a USB serial connection. Is there a Java library?

Cheers Hugh

Hi @hugh.boys,

Reach RS can output the position over TCP or Serial. Check our docs to get more information about that.

Where do you want to run this application?

You can use NMEA output from serial port and stream it to any NMEA decoder library for Java. There are a lot of them.
