### NMEA

Examples |
    #include <nmea.h>

    NMEA gps(ALL);    // GPS data connection to all sentence types

    void setup() {
      Serial.begin(9600);
      Serial1.begin(4800);
    }

    void loop() {
      if (Serial1.available() > 0 ) {
        // read incoming character from GPS and feed it to NMEA type object
        if (gps.decode(Serial1.read())) {
          // full sentence received
          Serial.print ("Sentence = ");
          Serial.println (gps.sentence());
          Serial.print ("Datatype = ");
          Serial.println (gps.term(0));
          Serial.print ("Number of terms = ");
          Serial.println (gps.terms());
        }

Description | Data connection to a GPS receiver. When you plan to use only the GPRMC routines from this library, connect with NMEA(GPRMC), all sentences that are not of type GPRMC are then ignored. To use more advanced routines of this library, connect with NMEA(ALL).
