Hi everyone, I’m looking at buying a ZOE-M8Q or SAM-M8Q GPS module, but I would like to check if these modules would work with a Raspberr Pi Zero over the Serial bus, and if there are any existing code/libraries to do so.
Thanks

As long as the serial is initialized correctly in the code, you should be fine. Our libraries have mostly been written to handle the GPS communication over I2C, however, I would suggest that you could look into other NMEA parser programs like the following: https://github.com/Knio/pynmea2
Hi, my Sparkfun SAM-M8Q and RedBoard Qwiic arrived in the post today. I have quickly uploaded the Example Sketch from the tutorial page: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sp … ample-code
I’m definitely getting output, but I don’t see the latitude/longitude results like on the tutorial page. Is there something I need to do here to get nice lat/lon coordinates? Thanks.
Ah, I discovered the MicroNMEA example in the Sparkfun Ublox library. Latitude and Longitude are showing up nicely
