Thank you.  Not as bad as I expected, but not good.

The NMEA pdf is from 2010!  So old and oblivious to 10 years of
NMEA progress.  It poorly documents their version of NMEA, nut even
mentioning which NMEA version it is based on.  It fails to document the
things that defferent receivers do differently, like PRNs for non-GPS
sats.

The IMU $PTCF message may be worth implementing.

The binary protocol has very poor framing and depends on character
timing!  Even worse than TSIP.  It can not co-exist with any other
binary protocol.

The control protocols are not in either document.

You ever wonder why all CAPTCHAs are of street scenes?  Asking about
picture elements a self driving car would want to identify?  These
are AI training data!  Paid for by the people working on self-driving
car AI. They have little to do with security.
