Change log for nmea_navsat_driver package

0.6.1 (2021-01-16)

  • Decode lines from the UDP server before passing them to the driver (#122)
  • Fix #115 Decoding errors. (#116)
  • Fix UTC time parsing #105 (#106)
  • Fix lint in doc config python (#117)
  • Contributors: Ed Venator

0.6.0 (2020-09-26)

  • Update to Python3 for ROS Noetic (#113)
  • Fix valid_fix check (#111) (#112)
  • Add Sphinx and rosdoc configuration (#93)
  • Add missing dependency on tf (#102)
  • Trim whitespace in nmea_topic_driver (#98)
  • Use a regex to split tokens in parser (#87)
  • Fix PEP8 Violations (#68)
  • Remove automatic prefixing of forward slash to frame_id. (#33/#57)
  • Add support for IMU aided GPS systems (#30/#58)
  • Publish heading (#25)
  • Improve Covariance Estimation (#46)
  • Remove Mean Sea Level compensation (#36)
  • Contributors: Ed Venator, Maximilian von Unwerth

0.5.2 (2020-02-23)

  • Use Python's SocketServer rather than low level socket APIs. (#92) This simplifies code and makes it easier to add TCP support in the future. The buffer_size parameter is no longer necessary because this is an internal detail of UDPServer.
  • Add documentation that passes pydocstyle. (#88)
  • Add an Option to Use GNSS Time and Improve Time Parsing. (#79)
    • Add an optional parameter use_GNSS_time to use the time from the GPS sentences for ROS message time instead of using system time.
    • Improve GPS time parsing to support nanosecond precision on devices that support it.
    • Improve GPS time parsing to use RMC message for date when available.
    • Improve GPS time parsing to resolve ambiguities in date and century using system time.
  • Refactor all nodes into entrypoint scripts. (#76). This will reduce the difference between ROS 1 and ROS 2 code, because ROS 2 uses Python entry points to install executables.
  • Fix PEP8 Violations (#68). All Python modules and scripts now pass pycodestyle --max-line-length 120 src/libnmea_navsat_driver/ scripts/*
  • Add nmea_serial_driver launch file (#60)
  • Removed roslint as build depend. (#59) roslint was accidentally re-added as a build dependency in #25.
  • Contributors: Ed Venator, Ryan Govostes, Tony Baltovski, Xiangyang Zhi, diasdm

0.5.1 (2018-12-30)

  • Add support for IMU aided GPS systems like the Applanix POS/MV, whose NMEA strings typically begin '$IN'. (e.g. $INGGA). Add support for VTG messages, which contain Course Over Ground and Speed Made Good. These are useful when not using RMC messages and you don't have a heading sensor. (#30/#58)
  • Add a NMEA socket driver node, which is like the existing serial driver node, but instead of attaching to a TTY handle from a serial port, it listens to a UDP port for NMEA sentences. (#32)
  • Add code to handle serial exception to allow node to exit cleanly (#52)
  • Cleanup CMakeLists, package.xml; using package format 2. (#28)
  • Update maintainer to Ed Venator (#38)
  • Add GLONASS support
  • Updated driver to accept status of 9 which some novatel recievers report for a WAAS (SBAS) fix. See http://www.novatel.com/support/known-solutions/which-novatel-position-types-correspond-to-the-gga-quality-indicator/
  • Contributors: Ed Venator, Eric Perko, Loy, Mike Purvis, Patrick Barone, Timo Röhling, Vikrant Shah

0.5.0 (2015-04-23)

  • Release to Jade.

0.4.2 (2015-04-23)

  • Fix remaining parse problem with NovAtel receivers (empty field specified for num_satellite).

0.4.1 (2014-08-03)

  • Add debug logging output to the parser (PR #8, Mike Purvis)
  • Add queue size arguement to publishers to fix warning on Indigo (PR #9, Mike Purvis)
  • Add support for roslint and some related cleanup (PR #10, Mike Purvis)

0.4.0 (2014-05-04)

  • Initial release for Indigo
  • Fix #5: Empty fields spam rosout with warnings. Driver now outputs sensor_msgs/NavSatFix messages that may contain NaNs in position and covariance when receiving invalid fixes from the device.

0.3.3 (2013-10-08)

  • Allow the driver to output velocity information anytime an RMC message is received

0.3.2 (2013-07-21)

  • Moved to nmea_navsat_driver package
  • Removed .py extensions from new-in-Hydro scripts
  • Now uses nmea_msgs/Sentence instead of custom sentence type
  • nmea_topic_driver reads the frame_id parameter from the sentence, not from the parameter server

0.3.1 (2013-05-07)

  • Removed incorrect find_package dependencies

0.3.0 (2013-05-05)

  • Initial release for Hydro
  • Converted to Catkin
  • nmea_gps_driver.py is now deprecated and will be removed in I-Turtle. Replacement node is nmea_serial_driver.py .
  • Refactored code into NMEA parser, common ROS driver and separate nodes for reading directly from serial or from topic.
  • Bugs fixed: - nmea_gps_driver crashes when a sentence doesn't have a checksum * character ( http://kforge.ros.org/gpsdrivers/trac/ticket/4 ) - Add ability for nmea_gps_driver to support reading from string topic ( ros-drivers/nmea_gps_driver#1 ). Use the nmea_topic_driver.py node to get this support.

0.2.0 (2012-03-15)

  • Initial version (released into Fuerte)
  • Supports GGA or RMC+GSA sentences to generate sensor_msgs/NavSatFix messages
