Gorillacell Module 079: GPS

Table of Contents

GPS stands for Global Positioning System, a satellite-based navigation technology that provides positional, navigational, and timing data. By receiving signals from multiple satellites, a GPS module can calculate the user’s 3-dimensional position—specifically, latitude, longitude, and altitude. This makes it essential for applications involving tracking, mapping, and location-based services.

The Gorillacell ESP32 Development Kit includes one (1) GPS Receiver module powered by the EByte E108 GPS driver chip, which enables accurate and reliable position data acquisition for IoT and embedded systems projects.
