I've been searching for an iPhone app that gives out the iPhone GPS
receiver data for each satellite tracked. I haven't found anything to
date. Bonus for one that records selected fields from each satellite as
well as receiver state.
Anyone?
Thanks,
Alan

If (this is the part I don't know) an iPhone can run arbitrary Java
applets, GPSMid can probably do most of what you're looking for. You
have to be wiling to do a bit of fiddling to get it going. It uses Open
Street Map data and features a moving-map display.

The program you refer to is just another navigator (I have 3 free GPS
and 3 paid for GPS Apps on my iPhone ... and that number is likely to go
up).
I really want the data on the _satellites_ and the receiver channel data.

Two words: export restrictions
My guess is that GPS developers are so afraid of falling afoul of the
export restrictions that they don't provide anything that can be used to
reconstruct the raw, uncensored 3-space velocity and position.
