I am working on a Windows 10 app using the ArcGIS .NET SDK runtime and I am trying to read the location from my GPS receiver. The GPS receiver is "pushing" data to a COM port.
I can only seem to get location data from the Windows Location Service, but I want to be able to read from a connected GPS receiver. Of course I won't always know which COM port the receiver is attached to, or the baud rate. I do know the data will be in the NMEA format.
How do I get .NET runtime to find the COM port, set the correct baud rate, and read the GPS receiver data so I can see if on a map? Yes, I see I can setup my own data source....but I'm asking how do I connect to the GPS data feed?
I can't be the first trying to use a GPS receiver with runtime, yet I can't find anything on GeoNet. Of course is doesn't help that searching for GPS returns all kinds of results for GP (GeoProcessing).
Thanks.
John
