GPS lab #20

Open jimbobbennett opened 4 years ago

jimbobbennett commented 4 years ago

The cart lists a GPS sensor. A good lab for this would be to show the location of a device on a map using Azure Maps and IoT Hub.

This will use an ESP32 to connect to the GPS sensor, coded in C++, and a Python/Flask web app to show the location on a map.

Hardware required

NEO-6M GPS module
ESP32

Lab

Setting up for ESP32 development with PlatformIO
Connecting the ESP32 to the GPS module
Connecting the ESP32 to IoT Hub to send GPS data
Plotting the GPS data on Azure Maps using a Python/Flask web page
