15.6.1. Concepts
Meshlium can integrate a GPS receiver which allows to know the exact location of the router any time. It is specially
interesting for mobile and vehicular applications and when setting long range links as the GPS position also gives
information about the height of each point so the Fresnel Zone can be accurately known.
The GPS module gives us information about:
•
latitude
•
longitude
•
height (meters)
•
speed (km/h)
•
date/time
Data captured form GPS is stored in the local database. In addition, the data can be synchronized to an external
MySQL database to be used in an other systems.
