Testing the Neo-6M GPS module (#112)

These Neo-6M GPS modules are all over ebay, aliexpress etc at low prices (this one was £3). They are easy to use and with a few lines of code can give you location and precise time. In this video we connect one up via USB and run some Python scripts to extract GPS data.

Python scripts are available at my Github site: https://github.com/magiccow/gps-utilities

For more information on GPS/NMEA message formats, see online where there are many great explanations and reference manuals, e.g.:
