+      gpsd is a service daemon that monitors one or more GPSes
+      attached to a host computer through serial or USB ports, making
+      all data on the location/course/velocity of the sensors
+      available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the host computer.
+      With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications (such as
+      navigational and wardriving software) can share access to GPSes
+      without contention or loss of data.  Also, gpsd responds to
+      queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse than
+      the NMEA 0183 emitted by most GPSes.  The gpsd distribution
+      includes a linkable C service library, a C++ wrapper class, and
+      a Python module that developers of gpsd-aware applications can
+      use to encapsulate all communication with gpsd.
+
+      Besides gpsd itself, the project provides auxiliary tools for
+      diagnostic monitoring and profiling of GPSes and feeding
+      GPS-aware applications GPS logs for diagnostic purposes.
