Description

ZylGPSReceiver is a Delphi & C++Builder component collection that communicates with a GPS receiver (Global Positioning System). It returns latitude, longitude, altitude, speed, course, heading and many other useful parameters of the current position and the parameters of the satellites in view. The component is extended to calculate distances and make conversions between different measurement units. This component works with any NMEA 0183 compilant GPS receiver connected to one of the serial ports. NMEA 0183 (or NMEA for short) is a combined electrical and data specification for communication between marine electronic devices such as echo sounder, sonars, Anemometer (winds speed and direction), gyrocompass, autopilot, GPS receivers and many other types of instruments. It has been defined by, and is controlled by, the US-based National Marine Electronics Association. The component supports GPS (USA), GLONASS (Russia), BeiDou (China), Quasi-Zenith (Japan) and Galileo (EU) satellites, but theoretically you can use for any other satellite as well. You can use it also with USB, IrDA and Bluetooth devices, because these devices have a driver that redirects the input from the USB, IrDA or Bluetooth port to a virtual serial port (you can check it in System/Device Manager/Ports). If your USB device is not provided with such a driver, then use a USB controller whose vendor provides a virtual serial port driver, such as FTDI or use a USB/RS-232 adapter. For Garmin receivers you have to install Spanner software. To connect to an Android smartphone's GPS, you can download GPS2Bluetooth application from playstore and connect your phone to your PC through bluetooth (GPS2BT service). The component collection contains 4 components. ZylCustomGPSReceiver is a custom Delphi & C++Builder component, which is designed to be the base class of any kind of GPS receivers. This component contains an NMEA decoder engine and it works with any NMEA compatible GPS receiver. You can extend this class easily to process NMEA data from any kind of sources as files, sockets, web services and so on. Supported NMEA sentences: GPGLL, GPGGA, GPVTG, GPRMC, GPGSA, GPGSV, GPZDA, GPMSS, GPAAM, GPRMB, GPBWC, GPWPL, GPRTE, GPXTE, GPHDT, GPHDM ZylGPSReceiver (ZylSerialGPSReceiver) is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which processes NMEA data from serial, USB or Bluetooth ports. It's thread based, which means that the reading process is handled by a different thread. ZylUdpGPSReceiver is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which processes NMEA data from an UDP socket. It uses Indy 9 socket components (http://www.indyproject.org), which is preinstalled in Delphi 6 and later. You can find the full source code of this component in the download package. Indy 9 is usually used with Delphi 4, Delphi 5, Delphi 6, Delphi 7, C++ Builder 4, C++ Builder 5, C++ Builder 6, later versions using Indy 10. ZylUdp10GPSReceiver is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which processes NMEA data from an UDP socket. It uses Indy 10 socket components (http://www.indyproject.org), which is preinstalled in Delphi 2005 and later. You can find the full source code of this component in the download package. ZylFileGPSReceiver is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which processes NMEA data from a text file. ZylNMEADecoder is an extension of ZylCustomGPSReceiver, which decodes NMEA data from any source, but you have to feed it with NMEA sentences programatically from the Decode method. With this components you will be able to develop robust GPS Delphi or C++Builder applications.
