<refsect1 id='description'><title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para><application>gps2udp</application> is a tool to connect to
<application>gpsd</application> and output the received sentences to
one or many UDP host:port destinations. This makes the program useful
for feeding AIS information from <application>gpsd</application> to
aishub, marinetraffic, shipfinder,... </para>
<para><application>gps2udp</application> does not require root
privileges, and can be run concurrently with other tools connecting
to the local <application>gpsd</application> without causing problems.</para>
<para>The output will consist of one or both of NMEA (-n option) or
JSON (-j option) <application>gpsd</application> sentences. The
output is sent to one or many destinations host through a UDP network
socket (-u host:port options) .</para>
<para>Optionally a server, TCP/IP port number and remote device can be given.
If omitted, <application>gps2udp</application> connects to localhost on
the default port (2947) and watches all devices opened by
<application>gpsd</application>.</para>
<para><application>gps2udp</application> may be run as a daemon (-b
option).</para>
<para><application>gps2udp</application> is designed to run smoothly in
background; it reconnects automatically to
<application>gpsd</application> whenever it is restarted. For
debugging purporses, there is an option to exit gracefully after a given
count of packets (-c option).</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1 id='options'><title>OPTIONS</title>
<para>-h makes <application>gps2udp</application> print
a usage message and exit.</para>
<para>-n causes NMEA sentences to be output.</para>
<para>-j causes JSON sentences to be output.</para>
<para>-u host:port UDP destination for output sentenses (up to five
destinations).</para>
<para>-a output only AIS messages.</para>
<para>-b causes <application>gps2udp</application> to run as a daemon.</para>
<para>-c [count] causes [count] sentences to be output.
<application>gps2udp</application> will then exit gracefully.</para>
<para>-d 1 prints sent packet on stdout.</para>
<para>-v prints the version, then exits.</para>

<para>With a running <application>gpsd accessible on the

<para><command>gps2udp -d 1 -n -u data.aishub.net:2222 </command> will
collect data from localhost:gpsd display them on stdout and send a

<para><command>gps2udp -a -n -b -u data.aishub.net:2222 -u 5.9.207.224:5321 -u 109.200.19.151:4001 fridu.net:2947</command> will collect
data from a remote gpsd located on fridu.net host, will filter AIS
messages and send them to 3 destination (aishub, marinetraffic,
shipfinder) in NMEA format, command is running in background
mode</para>
