Introduction
It is based on NEO-6 u blox 6 GPS module, compatible with Raspberry Pi 3. Plug it into Raspberry Pi 3. Upload correct codes to Raspberry Pi 3, and you can find your exact location within a few meters.
It also provides you with a very accurate time! It can be used in car navigation, personal positioning, fleet management, navigation and so on.
Features
Use active GPS antenna and origin chip.
With 40 pins, convenient to connect external devices.
Comes with screws, nuts, copper pillars, easy to fixed in Raspberry Pi.
Connection Method
To get started, hook the GPS module up to your Pi as follows, cross-connecting the TX and RX pins (TX on one device goes to RX on the other and vice versa), and supply 5V from the Pi to the VIN pin on the GPS module.
Usage
a. We use raspberry pi official system (2017-01-11-raspbian-jessie-lite), using SSH to log in, and you need to place a ssh file in the root directory .
b. Bluetooth and Debug share the same serial port together and, but you can just use BT or Debug on one time. For the Raspberry Pi 3 you need to explicitly enable the serial port on the GPIO pins. The reason for this is a change with the Pi 3 to use the hardware serial port for Bluetooth and instead use a slightly different software serial port for the GPIO pins. A side effect of this change is that the serial port will actually change speed as the Pi CPU clock throttles up and down--this will unfortunately cause problems for most serial devices like GPS receivers!
