Raspberrypi 3 about raspberry-pi-itead-studio-gps-neo-6m HOT 5 OPEN

@thijstriemstra I was hoping to produce a GPS tracker using a node library, unfortunately the node libraries I found rely on using the cgps. It seems fairly simple to just read in from the serial in node and translate the sentences to GPS lat/lon, so I'm going to have a go at making a small node library for my solution.

Thanks for sharing, I was stumped until I discovered this!

@thijstriemstra I've been trying to get this working on the pi zero, following your comments above I now get data out running:
sudo cat /dev/serial0
sudo gpsmon /dev/serial0

but not:
sudo cgps -s

Any thoughts as to why cgps doesnt like this?

@kirgy no, I also saw mixed results with these tools.

Thanks @thijstriemstra I'll update the instructions to make them clear they were for Raspi B/B+
I don't have a Raspi 3 or Zero, so can't test your changes.

@kirgy Have you seen this one? https://github.com/eelcocramer/node-gpsd

I've documented more after opening this ticket, will update the description, maybe there's something useful in there @kirgy (done)
