To use this plug-in you need the following in addition to the plug-in:
- Ultra GPS Logger
The plug-in allows to broadcast your position to:
- a user defined URL via HTTP GET or HTTP POST
- a FTP server (kml, gpx or csv)
- an email address
- NMEA data via UDP to an IP address in your local WLAN
So you can use the GPS position live for different purposes.
The HTTP GET/POST mode provides the following varaibles:
nick - nickname as specified in settings
grp - group as specified in settings
lat - current latitude
lon - current longitude
alt - current altitude
time - current timestamp
The configuration can be accessed under:
Settings / Plugins / Broadcast
In case multiple position sending is configured:
[ar_size] => 10
[ar_lat_0] => oldest postion
[ar_lon_0] =>
[ar_alt_0] =>
[ar_time_0] =>
...
[ar_lat_9] => latest postion
[ar_lon_9] =>
[ar_alt_9] =>
[ar_time_9] =>
The FTP mode uses the FTP server configured under Settings / Online services.
