This AtomVM library can be used to take readings from common GPS sensors connected to ESP32 devices.
The library assumes that GPS sensors are connected to the ESP32 via the UART interface, and that the GPS sensor supports the NMEA 0183 protocol. Examples include boards built on the NEO-6 chipset. The GPS sensor only needs to be connected to the RX channel on the UART interface, as messages are only sent from the GPS sensor to the ESP32.
Data in a reading includes:
- date and time
- latitude (degrees)
- longitude (degrees)
- altitude (meters)
- speed (meters/sec)
- number of sattelites in use
