GPS API - iann - 04-10-2020
Hi there,
I am willing to use the pinephone for a project needing GPS positionning.
My software will execute on Linux Ubuntu Touch using a GO (golang) binary.
Could you provide reference documentation or explain how I could access the GPS coordinate of the smartphone ?
Thanks for your help
Best

You probably need to look at GPSD. I don't know whether they've enabled it by default in the ubuntu side yet, but on PostmarketOS it's configured to start and stop the gps device as necessary.
