GPS Time Machine provides the ability to convert a date and GPS time (hours, minutes, seconds, fractions of second) to a datetime object. GPS Time Machine adjusts for the offset between UTC and GPS time based on the number of leap seconds for the specified date. Because the gap between UTC and GPS times shift unpredictably based on when leap seconds are added by the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS), GPS Time Machine uses data from the U.S. Naval Observatory for this adjustment. See NOTES for more information.
