NovAtel’s Application Programming Interface Designed for Use on OEM7 Receivers

NovAtel Inc.’s Application Programming Interface (API) is a set of predefined functions for developing custom software to execute from and interface with the GNSS receiver platform. The next generation API from NovAtel features a simple scripting language designed to easily create scripts to perform specialized operations that run onboard the receiver.

The seamless customization of output formats and the ability to write custom algorithms without an additional processor gives users control of their data. The increased functionality of the API eliminates system hardware, simplifies system design, reduces development time and decreases time to market, according to NovAtel. The next generation API is only available on the OEM7® family of receivers.

Features Include:

  • Application runs on OEM7 receivers
  • Scripts can be written quickly using the LUA scripting language
