Python scripts that are run on two Raspberry Pi 3 B+ units connected to EvoLogics acoustic modems.

In Progress: setting up a python venv to make testing easier

• To set up a new device, use ./setup.sh, which will create a venv for you and pull the requirements.txt with pip
• Activate the venv with source venv/bin/activate
• Run your code
• Deactivate with deactivate

Current Objectives:

• Add comments from original Adafruit code for GPS snippets to the new scripts, credit appropriately
• Get GPIO input from the switch on the box
  • In the scripts, start a new data log file when the control switch on the box is toggled on, and stop it when it's toggled off
  • Add respective scripts to /etc/rc.local on both pis so it autostarts
  • Determine how the data logs will be synced/named/matched up
• Use something like sperf to get transmission stats in the lake
  • Combine with GPS Data to get sperf stats assossciated with gps points
• Develop a tool for plotting gps points on a map
