Hi,
How do I interpret the time from NMEA plot of GPS.

I want to convert 164447000 to UTC time.
Any ideea?

Thank you very much.

Assuming you are quoting the time field from a GPRMC sentence there is a
reference here:-
http://www.gpsinformation.org/dale/nmea.htm

A sample sentence would look like:-
$GPRMC,123519,A,4807.038,N,01131.000,E,022.4,084.4,230394,003.1,W*6A

Where the time is 12:35.19 (UTC), and the date is 23 March 1994

Hi,

I have example code in my book. Perhaps the "easy way" is to download
DecodeGPS from my homepage. This does it for you, and it is localized, so
it should work in any locale.
