The Adafruit GPS Logger Shield Kit adds GPS location tracking and SD card data logging to your Arduino. Build the kit, plug in a compatible GPS module, and start logging precise location, date, time, and analog sensor data in CSV format to a FAT16-formatted SD card.

The shield is designed specifically for use with the EM-406a GPS module, with the surface-mount GPS connector pre-soldered. It is also compatible with Tyco A1035D, EB-85A, and Lassen IQ modules. Run the included Arduino example sketches to parse NMEA sentences or log GPS data alongside sensor readings.

Key Features

• GPS Data Parsing – Read and parse NMEA sentences from compatible GPS modules
• SD Card Data Logging – Log location, date, time, and analog sensor data in CSV format to FAT16 SD cards
• Pre-Soldered GPS Connector – Surface-mount connector ready for EM-406a and compatible modules
• Arduino Shield Form Factor – Plugs directly onto Arduino Uno and compatible boards
• Example Sketches Included – Get started quickly with GPS parsing and logging examples

Ideal For

• GPS tracking and location logging projects
• Environmental data collection with geo-tagging
• Vehicle or asset tracking systems
• Learning GPS and data logging with Arduino
