+    longDescription = ''
+      gpsd is a service daemon that monitors one or more GPSes or AIS
+      receivers attached to a host computer through serial or USB ports,
+      making all data on the location/course/velocity of the sensors
+      available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the host computer. With
+      gpsd, multiple location-aware client applications (such as navigational
+      and wardriving software) can share access to receivers without
+      contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd responds to queries with a
+      format that is substantially easier to parse than the NMEA 0183 emitted
+      by most GPSes. The gpsd distribution includes a linkable C service
+      library, a C++ wrapper class, and a Python module that developers of
+      gpsd-aware applications can use to encapsulate all communication with
+      gpsd. Third-party client bindings for Java and Perl also exist.
+
+      Besides gpsd itself, the project provides auxiliary tools for
+      diagnostic monitoring and profiling of receivers and feeding
+      location-aware applications GPS/AIS logs for diagnostic purposes.
