15 Using GPS with Your Arduino
In this chapter, you will
- Learn how to connect a GPS shield
- Create a simple GPS coordinates display
- Show the actual position of GPS coordinates on a map
- Build an accurate clock
- Record the position of a moving object over time
You’ll learn how to use an inexpensive GPS shield to determine location, create an accurate clock, and make a logging device that records the position of your gadget over time onto a microSD card, which can then be plotted over a map to display movement history.
What Is GPS?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system that sends data from satellites orbiting Earth to GPS receivers on the ground that can use that data to determine the current position and ...
