GNSS library for parsing RTCMv2, RTCMv3, NMEA and control recievers througt SBF, ComNav, UBX protocols for .NET
This solution can be used with the main project Asv.Drones, you can find out more about it here. You can also use it in your own projects installing this library via nuget
Install-Package Asv.Gnss -Version X.X.X2.1 If you want to use this library in your project, then here are some guidelines on how to use it:
// create connection with default parsers: Nmea,RTCMv2,RTCMv3,ComNav,Ubx,Sbf
var connection = GnssFactory.CreateDefault("tcp://10.10.5.28:64101");
// for TCP client connection: tcp://127.0.0.1:9002
// for TCP server(listen) connection: tcp://127.0.0.1:9002?srv=true
// for UDP connection: udp://127.0.0.1:1234?rhost=127.0.0.1&rport=1235
// for COM\serial port connection Linux: serial:/dev/ttyACM0?br=115200
// for COM\serial port connection Windows: serial:COM4?br=115200
connection
.Filter<RtcmV2Message1>()
.Subscribe(_ => { /* do something with RTCM Differential GPS Corrections (Fixed) message */ });
connection
.Filter<RtcmV3Message1006>()
.Subscribe(_ => { /* do something with RTCM 1006 Stationary RTK Reference Station ARP */ });
// you can control GNSS receivers through connection too
// for example configures the SinoGNSS receiver to fix the height at the last calculated value
ComNavAsciiCommandHelper.FixAuto(connection);
// enable send NMEA GPGLL messages through 1 sec
ComNavAsciiCommandHelper.LogCommand(connection, ComNavMessageEnum.GPGLL, period: 1, trigger: ComNavTriggerEnum.ONTIME).Wait();var device = new UbxDevice("serial:COM10?br=115200");
await device.SetupByDefault();
await device.SetSurveyInMode(minDuration: 60, positionAccuracyLimit: 2);
device.Connection.Filter<RtcmV3Msm4>().Subscribe(_ => { /* do something with RTCM */ });.NET SDK 7 - https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/7.0 ; AvaloniaUI - https://docs.avaloniaui.net/docs/get-started/install ; Execute dotnet install (package name) command to setup required packages.

The organization of the codebase plays a crucial role in maintaining a clean, scalable, and easily understandable project. This section outlines the structure of our codebase, highlighting key directories and their purposes.
Our solution is organized the following way:
-
sln/: This directory contains the source code of the application. The code is further organized into projects, each residing in its own subdirectory. The goal is to promote modularity and maintainability.sln/ ├── Asv.Gnss/ │ ├── Devices/ │ ├── GeoMath/ │ ├── Parsers/ │ └── ... ├── Asv.Gnss.Prometheus/ │ ├── Asv.Gnss.Shell/ │ ├── Properties/ │ └── ... ├── Asv.Gnss.Test/ │ ├── Properties/ │ ├── Resources/ │ └── ... └── asv-gnss/
Consistent naming conventions are essential for code readability. Throughout the codebase, we follow the guidelines outlined in our documentation
These conventions contribute to a unified and coherent codebase.
By adhering to this organized structure and naming conventions, we aim to create a codebase that is easy to navigate, scalable, and conducive to collaboration among developers.
Maintaining a consistent coding style across the project enhances readability, reduces errors, and facilitates collaboration. The following guidelines outline our preferred coding style for C#:
-
Indentation: Use tabs for indentation. Each level of indentation should consist of one tab.
-
Brace Placement: Place opening braces on the same line as the statement they belong to, and closing braces on a new line.
// Good if (condition) { // Code here } // Bad if (condition) { // Code here }
-
Pascal Case: Use Pascal case for class names, method names, and property names.
public class MyClass { public void MyMethod() { // Code here } public int MyProperty { get; set; } }
-
Expression-bodied Members: Utilize expression-bodied members for concise one-liners.
// Good public int CalculateSquare(int x) => x * x; // Bad public int CalculateSquare(int x) { return x * x; } -
Null Conditional Operator: Use the null conditional operator (
?.) for safe property or method access.// Good int? length = text?.Length; // Bad int length = (text != null) ? text.Length : 0;
-
XML Documentation: Include XML comments for classes, methods, and properties to provide comprehensive documentation.
/// <summary> /// Represents a sample class. /// </summary> public class SampleClass { /// <summary> /// Calculates the sum of two numbers. /// </summary> /// <param name="a">The first number.</param> /// <param name="b">The second number.</param> /// <returns>The sum of the two numbers.</returns> public int Add(int a, int b) { // Code here } }
- Use comments sparingly and focus on explaining complex or non-intuitive code sections.
By adhering to these coding style guidelines, we aim to create code that is easy to read, understand, and maintain.
Version control is a fundamental aspect of our development process, providing a systematic way to track changes, collaborate with team members, and manage the evolution of our codebase. We utilize Git as our version control system.
For each new feature or bug fix, create a dedicated feature branch. The branch name should be descriptive of the feature or issue it addresses.
# Example: Creating a new feature branch
git checkout -b feature/my-new-featureIn case of critical issues in the production environment, create a hotfix branch. This allows for a quick resolution without affecting the main development branch.
# Example: Creating a hotfix branch
git checkout -b hotfix/1.0.1Write clear and concise commit messages that convey the purpose of the change. Follow these guidelines:
- Start with a verb in the imperative mood (e.g., "Add," "Fix," "Update").
- Keep messages short but descriptive.
Example:
# Good
git commit -m "Add user authentication feature"
# Bad
git commit -m "Updated stuff"Before merging changes into the main branch, create a pull request (PR). This allows for code review and ensures that changes adhere to coding standards.
- Assign reviewers to the PR.
- Include a clear description of the changes.
- Ensure that automated tests pass before merging.
Adopt a merging strategy based on the nature of the changes:
- Feature Branches: Merge feature branches into the main branch after code review and approval.
- Release Branches: Merge release branches into the main branch and tag the commit for the release.
# Example: Merging a feature branch
git checkout main
git merge --no-ff feature/my-new-featureOur Git repository is hosted on GitHub. Ensure that you have the necessary permissions and follow best practices for repository management.
