The ESP32 Bluetooth service has been enhanced to support the output of waypoints in GPWPL format.

I have already tested it with Heltec Wireless Tracker V1.1

This is really neat. A couple of thoughts: I would like this to be opt-in via the bluetooth config, as it generates a bunch of extra traffic over the PhoneAPI. I would also like to have an NRF52 implementation as well, so that we don't tie this to a single platform.

@lcflyr are there any specific apps or use cases you created this for? I'm curious because I've looked at location standard GATT stuff recently.

I'm a beginner in embedded systems. It might take some time for me to achieve the function you mentioned. Many APRS map software support the GPWPL waypoint format, allowing users to view the positions of other nodes without being limited to the Meshtastic app.
