robust-ntrip-client

Rust client library to connect to Network Transport of RTCM via Internet Protocol (NTRIP) server. (RTCM stands for Radio Technical Commission for Maritime services and is the message type carrying GNSS correction signals to enable centimeter-resolution GNSS position finding.)

See also the ntrip-client crate. I was unaware of this other crate at the time I began writing robust-ntrip-client.

In addition to the robust-ntrip-client crate, this repository contains an example program which may be interesting.

Example usage

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> eyre::Result<()> {
   let raw_client = robust_ntrip_client::RobustNtripClient::new(
       "ntrip://username:password@example-ntrip-server.com/mountpoint",
       Default::default()
   ).await?;
   let mut ntrip = robust_ntrip_client::ParsingNtripClient::new(raw_client);

   loop {
       let msg = ntrip.next().await?;
       println!(
           "message {}: {} bytes",
           msg.message_number(),
           msg.frame_data().len()
       );
   }
}

Example binary: ntrip-client

What is it

• CLI program to listen to NTRIP data source.

How to run

cargo run --example ntrip-client -- NTRIP_URL

Where NTRIP_URL would be something like ntrip://username:password@host[:port]/mountpoint.
