About
-----
NMEA serial data parser library. Listens on a serial port for NMEA data
and provides functions to access location, time and satellite information.

This package provides the nmea.library and header files for development.

Testing was conducted using a u-blox VK-162 USB receiver via Poseidon 
usbmodem.device. This should work using any serial device, including the 
standard serial.device which comes with the Amiga OS. 

Use the library for your own applications to sync up UTC time/date, plot 
your Amiga on a map, make a satnav or track satellites.

Library Install
---------------
Copy nmea.library to LIBS:

Versions
--------
1.0 - 22 Mar 2026: First released version.


IMPORTANT NOTE:
---------------
Testing has been conducted with a USB NMEA satellite device. RS232 or other
serial hardware may not be fully compatible with Amiga serial hardware. 
Please check all specifications and required voltages before plugging in and
powering up. 
All data provided by this library should not be used where accuracy, safety
and data protection are important.
