GPS Recorder

This chapter will discuss more on working with GPS module, and the main difference between this chapter and Chapter 4 is that here we will work with a GPS module through coding. We will start with the simplest coding in which there are no actions taken by Arduino and just allow the GPS data to be streamed through the Arduino IDE’s Serial Monitor window. We will then include coding to display the GPS data on an LCD, before using an SD card to save the data. We will then add a toggle switch and experiment with a magnetic switch, which will allow us to turn the GPS on and off from outside a waterproof enclosure.
