National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) data is supported if the GPS module is present in the system.

It provides a client API offering positioning capabilities to applications and other system components..

To retrieve NMEA streaming data:
  • Device node for NMEA streaming: Edge Gateway 3001/3003
    $ cat /dev/ttyS4
