Can anyone recommend a ROS-compatible GPS/GNSS that connects via USB?

Like the headline says, I am looking for a good and proven to work GPS/GNSS module that works well with ROS and can be connected via USB. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I will be most likely be using a Jetson board with Jetpack and ROS Melodic.

Thanks!

What is the budget for this? There is quite a range of available GPS receivers, and you trade off price for quality most of the time.

The majority of GPS receivers that I have handled have a USB serial interface

@vinny good question. I would say up to USD. 350

The Ublox modules are quite good for their price IMHO and come with ROS libs

Thanks. I came across one or two of these but was not sure if they had ros support. I will look into them more carefully.
