        For that check out my carmondi project:

It captures the speed in a stream (and converts it to km/h).

Distance isn't directly output by the GPS unit I use (which makes sense
since how would it know when I want zero distance?). However, since you get
speed every second distance simply becomes the integral of the speed. TTYL
