RTCM-JSON Converter

This is a command-line interface (CLI) application that facilitates the serialization and deserialization of RTCM v.3 to and from JSON format. The application is built on top of the rtcm-rs library and thus supports new message formats as they are introduced in the rtcm-rs updates.

The application supports several input and output options, including an NTRIP v. 1 client implementation.

Pre-Compiled Binaries

Pre-compiled binaries are provided for various platform to allow for quick and easy setup without the need for building the application from source.

Usage

The application is invoked through the command rtcm-json and accepts several options to customize the conversion process.

          nmea gga message if required
  -x, --xyz <<x>,<y>,<z>>>
          coordinate to supply to Ntrip caster in 
          nmea gga message if required
  -r, --nmea-repeat <NMEA repeat interval (s)>
          time interval between resend of NMEA GGA coordinates
  -O, --stdout-output
