DFRobot_GNSS

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) provide critical timing and positioning functions for device operations. This Gravity: GNSS positioning module from DFRobot supports both single and multiple systems positioning. It is capable of quick delivery of position data like longitude, latitude, altitude and time. Compared with traditional single GPS positioning, the multi-system combination embraces higher precision and faster speed thanks to the increased number of visible and available satellites, which ensures stable and accurate performance even in complex urban environments.

With I2C and UART data outputs, the GNSS positioning module works well with main-controllers like Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi. It is applicable to outdoor positioning scenarios such as vehicle navigation, handheld positioning tracker, item tracking and weather station.

Summary

Provide an Arduino library for the GNSS module with the following features: Retrieval of GNSS data Retrieval of raw GNSS data.

Installation

There are two methods for using this library:

  1. Open Arduino IDE, search for "DFRobot_GNSS" on the status bar in Tools ->Manager Libraries and install the library.
  2. Download the library file before use, paste it into \Arduino\libraries directory, then open the examples folder and run the demo in the folder.
