We have developed two additional programs and an R script to test
aspects of SeaLog. The first, read_serial.R
is an R script that allows
you to check individual COM ports for NMEA stream data. It operates at a
low level, so you can see everything that is being sent to the COM port.
Once you find the port with a valid NMEA stream, you can use this port
in SeaLog.
The second tool, NMEALogger uses the serial port reader plug-in that is build into SeaLog to dump whatever is streaming from the selected serial port.
TilePackageChecker allows you to check a tile package by loading it into the same map interface used in SeaLog, and re-centering the map to coordinates you choose.
