Well, for the "standard" GPS I speak of is anything like a magellen, or etrex with a screen, something made for the general public, not made for microcontrollers. Is the output a constant output or is it only stuff that you can record then load to a computer.
Before I posted I was looking at this one from sparkfun,

Can somebody help explain some aspects of the NMEA protocol to me? I was looking in this:
http://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/G...%20Manual1.pdf
And a few other documents that are similar, it seems as though I just need the GGA protocol. But for some parts in it I don't understand the output. I don't understnad the output of the lat and long values.
Also what values from that string what would I need to to simply tell what the position is?
