Sensor Data

NMEA sentences

A GPS recording of NMEA sentences can be found here.

If you have curl installed:

curl -L -o /tmp/nmea-recording.txt "https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0BxDUQnmvFeMNOXM1ZmFFNHZZU2s"

If you want to make your own GPS data, head over to https://nmeagen.org. The "Multi-point line" seems to work best. Lay some points and then click the "Generate NMEA file" button.

Accelerometer samples

An accelerometer recording can be found here.

Thermometer samples

A thermometer recording can be found here here.

Device samples

A device info sample can be found here here.
