Introduction: Raspberry Pi Gps Tracker
hi friends
always smile and be happy because it's the best thing that we have .
this time i have made a raspberry pi GPS tracker and a real time web interface.
to make it brief, we have a GPS module with a serial communication that we read on raspberry
and show it on a HTML web page. easy!
for reading from module, we i have this beautiful simple python code to get the latitude & longitude as you see in images(it's gps.py )
that way you print the lat & lon when you execute gps.py like:
sudo python gps.py
Step 1: Building the Web Interface
we're gonna use JAVASCRIPT and AJAX and PHP for showing map on HTML
it's like this:
1- execute gps.py in php
2-echo gps.py output in php
3-in js put a google map object
4-send a ajax request to .php and get response text
5-make text numbers sliced and appropriate
6-again & again send ajax requests to refresh the lat & long and marker on map
