+# mangoh-gps-monitor 🌎🎯🗺
+
+Designed to work with MangOH boards. Tested on MangOH Red with Legato 17.11. May work with other boards as well.
+
+## Motivation 🤔
+
+Monitoring GPS location is cool, but blocking up other important calls is way less cool, and multi-threaded programming is arguably not that cool either. This app will keep an eye on your GPS location and allow other apps to request the location.
+
+## Setup 🛠
+
+You are free to copy and runs this code however you would like, however we recommend using a [Git submodule](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-submodule) to stay up to date.
+
+### Bindings 👋
+
+To use this app, setup the required [Legato IPC bindings](http://legato.io/legato-docs/latest/basicIPC.html).
+
+myClientApp.adef
+```
+...
+bindings:
+{
+  myClientApp.myComponent.brnkl_gps -> gpsMonitor.brnkl_gps
+}
+...
+```
+
+Component.cdef
+```
+...
+requires:
+{
+  api:
+  {
+    brnkl_gps.api
+  }
+}
+...
+```
+
+Note that you will need to include this interface in your system definition (`.sdef` file), or tell `mkapp`/`mksys` where to find it with the `-i` argument. An absolute path works too but this can be a pain depending on how your project is setup.
+
+### Example Usage ⌨️
+
+myApp.c
+```c
+double lat, lon, horizAccuracy;
+uint64_t lastReading;
+le_result r = brnkl_gps_getLocation(&lat, &lon, &horizAccuracy, &lastReading);
+LE_DEBUG("GPS reading %s", r == LE_OK ? "succeeded" : "failed");
+```
+
+That's it!
