Re: Decoding GPS with C#

You might try looking at the open source project, GPSd http://gpsd.berlios.de/. It runs on Linux and Macs. I haven't tried it under Windows, but I would guess it'll compile under cygwin and run fine. GPSd has support for reading gps data in a bunch of different formats, and then translates the data into a common, easier to use, format which is accessible either through a TCP (telnet) connection to the server running gpsd, or through the gpsd client (available for a number of different languages, including C, C++ and perl).
