I suppose you are using the GarminGPS model. You can try to add the attribute updateFreq to your world file to get a higher rate:
<updateFreq>20</updateFreq> The default frequence used is 1Hz. In the GarminGPS documentation only the default attributes of every model are documented. Besides these you can specify size, mass, color and updateFreq (line 149-164 in GarminGPS.cc) Armin GarminGPS documentation http://playerstage.sourceforge.net/doc/Gazebo-manual-0.7.0-html/group__GarminGPS.html GarminGPS.cc http://playerstage.cvs.sourceforge.net/playerstage/code/gazebo/server/models/GarminGPS/GarminGPS.cc?revision=1.23&view=markup Dave Wooden wrote: > Question: > How can I get Gazebo to report gps at a higher rate? > > My setup: > Gazebo simulates a car.
