GPSGen

GPS data generator based on predefined routes. Supports GPX and GeoJSON route formats.

This library can be used in testing and debugging applications or devices dependent on GPS/GLONASS/ETC, allowing you to simulate locations for checking their functionality without actual movement.

Routes

GeoJSON

tracker := gpsgen.NewDroneTracker()

route, err := gpsgen.DecodeGeoJSONRoutes(geoJSONBytes)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

tracker.AddRoute(route...)
// ...

GPX

tracker := gpsgen.NewDroneTracker()

route, err := gpsgen.DecodeGPXRoutes(GPXBytes)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

tracker.AddRoute(route...)
// ...

Random

tracker := gpsgen.NewDroneTracker()

// lon, lat, numTracks, zoomLevel
lon := 28.31261399982
lat := 53.247483804819666
numTracks := 2

route := gpsgen.RandomRoute(lon, lat, numTracks, gpsgen.RouteLevelXL)

tracker.AddRoute(route...)
// ...

Sensors

A sensor provides a flexible and expandable way to represent and work with sensors. It enables the generation of different values for various tasks, making it suitable for diverse applications and use cases, including sensor data collection, modeling, or analysis.

// types.WithSensorStartMode: Generation starts from the minimum value of 1 to 10
// types.WithSensorEndMode:   Generation ends at the minimum value from 10 to 1
// types.WithSensorRandomMode: Data generation follows a Bezier curve from 1 to 10

minValue := 1
maxValue := 10
amplitude := 16 // 4 - 512

s1, err := gpsgen.NewSensor("s1", minValue, maxValue, amplitude, types.WithSensorStartMode|types.WithSensorRandomMode|types.WithSensorEndMode)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

droneTracker.AddSensor(s1)
s2, err := gpsgen.NewSensor("s2", 10, 20, 16, types.WithSensorRandomMode|types.WithSensorEndMode)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
droneTracker.AddSensor(s2)
s3, err := gpsgen.NewSensor("s3", 20, 30, 16, 0)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
droneTracker.AddSensor(s3)
// ...
