Several commodity chipsets (ANTARIS, iTrax3, SiRF and Trimble) readily
output enough data to make this a chore, rather than a hard problem.
+And pseudoranges, if available, are now part of the SKY report.
-It has been suggested one way to do this is to have a generic structure
-in memory and corresponding output message with clock, doppler carrier
-phase and pseudoranges. This message is then reformatted by a client
-program. There are numerous formats for this information, and it would
-be easier to adapt to new formats if the formatting and use was handled
-by something other than the gpsd daemon. Currently the RT-IGS format is
-looking like the favorite for implementation; it's a fairly lightweight
-protocol, flexible enough to handle all the quantities required, and it
-is actually in use in production reference networks. RT-IGS is also a
-packet-oriented format, rather than a file-oriented format like RINEX.
+Probably the best way to do this would be to add support for unscaled
+output of peudoranges in SKY and add clock and doppler carrier
+phase. This message could then be interpreted by a client program.
