GPS based projects ideas for EE and ECE students

GPS based projects using pic microcontroller and Arduino Uno R3. GPS (Global Positing System) based Project and Tutorials:  Global Positioning System a.k.a. GPS is a network of satellites used to send and receive accurate details about the position of anybody in the form of longitude and latitude. GPS is used in various field of life such as monitoring, navigation, and security. GPS works on a basic mathematical principle called Trilateration. If you want to learn more about GPS working so visit this link about what is GPS and how GPS works? There are many GPS modules available in the market. But I have used Holux M-89 GPS module in these GPS based project.
