I have a main controller which automatically starts this application's background service when my car starts.</p>\n<p>The application is designed to work with any SiRF USB GPS device, however it has been tested as working with GlobalSat BU-353-S4 and a device based on the UBLOX LEA-M8P chip.</p>\n","categories":["Navigation","System"]}
