  • Added support in adafruit_gps.py for GPGLL, GPVTG, GPGSA, and GPGSV NMEA sentences.
    • GPGLL - Geographic Position – Latitude/Longitude
    • GPVTG - Track Made Good and Ground Speed
    • GPGSA - GPS Dilution of Precision and active satellites
    • GPGSV - Satellites in view
  • Changed the input buffer check 64 bytes in the input buffer to 32 bytes in the input buffer since some sentences aren't 64 bytes.

  • Added a check to make sure the number of bytes in the input buffer was at least 64, so the module doesn't block while waiting for bytes in the buffer.
  • Added an explanation of NMEA 0183 and the different formats in which the data is transmitted to the microcontroller from the GPS.
