New KismetDB version
The database version for the kismetdb
log has been updated to version 5. This version changes two significant things:
- GPS coordinates are now stored as 8-byte
REAL
(akadouble
) values in the database, instead of being normalized to integers. This allows Kismet to log with as much precision as the GPS provides, in all situations. - The
packets
anddata
tables now log GPS speed, altitude, and heading for each packet/data record.
Tools using the kismetdb
log should check the db_version
field in the KISMET
table to determine how to treat coordinates.
For more info, check the kismetdb log docs.
