A GUI based on Python Tkinter to decode MSD (Minimum Set of Data). There are few MSD decoders on the Internet so I create this tool for anyone who are interested in eCall and MSD.
eCall is a pan-European in-vehicle emergency call system which uses the European emergency number 112 over a cellular network in the event of an accident. An eCall can be placed manually, e.g., on the push of a button, or automatically upon detection of an emergency situation by the car's safety systems, e.g., due to airbag deployment.
The Minimum Set of Data (MSD) contains vehicle information such as location, vehicle identification number, etc. The expected benefit is that emergency services will be made aware of accidents rapidly, will get precise location information and therefore will be able to reach accident victims faster, with the potential to save many hundreds of lives annually.

HELP: GUIDE and ABOUT the program.
An entry box where you can copy and paste the raw MSD data. Notice that you won't have to copy and paste the rest of 0s. The program will help you make them up automatically.
A list box where shows detail values after decoding raw MSD data.
Two buttons: Decode raw MSD data and clear everything.
