The GPS code already reports the PDOP code ( description on PDOP here https://www.agsgis.com/What-is-PDOP-And-Why-its-Obsolete_b_43.html) so I would just use that for now (rather than HDOP - which would require updating the GPS library).

If you search the source tree (including the .pio directory also you should see mention of pDOP in the SparkFun_Ublox library. In our GPS class you can call getPDOP() to read it. And change the screen.cpp code to display that number as a % quality? Where super great PDOP you see outside on your deck with clear view of sky you call 100% and the crummy PDOP you see when it is on your desk you call something close to zero?

Does that help to get started? Happy to help if you have other questions.
