NAME

Net::GPSD::Satellite - Provides an interface for a gps satellite object.

SYNOPSIS

use Net::GPSD;
my $obj=Net::GPSD->new();
my $i=0;
print join("\t", qw{Count PRN ELEV Azim SNR USED}), "\n";
foreach ($obj->getsatellitelist) {
  print join "\t", ++$i,
                   $_->prn,
                   $_->elev,
                   $_->azim,
                   $_->snr,
                   $_->used;
                   $_->oid;
  print "\n";
}
