The ``aprscot`` "APRS to Cursor On Target (COT) Gateway" transforms APRS
11-
Frames into COT Position Location Information (PLI) Points, compatible with
12-
Situational Awareness (SA) and Common Operating Picture (COP) applications
13-
such as Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK), WinTAK, RaptorX, COPERS, et al.
10+
The ``aprscot`` "APRS to Cursor On Target (COT) Gateway" provides beyond
11+
line-of-sight blue force tracking capabilities using commercial off the shelf
12+
components. This gateway uses the Automatic Packet Reporting System (APRS)
13+
and APRS-IS network to forward APRS position reports to Cursor On Target (COT)
14+
clients such as the Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK), WinTAK, et al. Other
15+
situational awareness & common operating picture platforms are supported
16+
through use of COT, such as TAKX & COPERS.
17+
18+
APRS Frames can also be transformed or callsigns normalized before forwarding
19+
as COT. Almost any network destination is available, including TCP & UDP
20+
Mulitcast.
