Arduino IoT Tutorial 7 – Your Location using GPS

Components Required:

1. Arduino Uno

2. Linux PC/Windows PC (Tested with Windows 10, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS)

3. USB cable A to B

4. SIM28ML GPS Module

5. Jumper Wires

Way to go ->

1. Connect Arduino Uno to PC via the USB cable.

2. Upload GPS.ino to the Arduino. (TinyGPS library used)

GPS.ino

#include <TinyGPS.h>

TinyGPS gps;

long lat, lon;

void setup() {

  Serial.begin(9600);

}

void loop() {

  while (Serial.available())

  {

    int c = Serial.read();

    gps.encode(c);

  }

  gps.get_position(&lat, &lon);

  Serial.print("Latitude, Longitude: "); Serial.print(lat * pow(10, -6)); Serial.print(", "); Serial.println(lon * pow(10, -6));

}

Hardware Connections ->

1. GPS Module to Arduino Uno

Note:- Make sure you disconnect the Tx (GPS Module) to Rx (Arduino Uno) connection every time you upload the Arduino sketch (GPS.ino).
