The NEO6 Module is a standalone GPS receiver in high performance UBOX 6 positioning engine. These flexible and cost effective receivers offer numerous connectivity option in small size 16×12.2 x 2.4mm package chip. Their compact architecture and power and memory option make these device ideal for battery operated mobility device. The 50 channel GPS positioning engine boasts a TTFF (Time to First Fix) of under 1 second.
The dedicated acquisition engine, along with 2 million correlators, is capable of massive parallel time & frequency space searches, enabling it to find the satellites instantly. Innovative design and technology suppresses jamming sources and mitigates multi-path effects, giving NEO6 GPS receiver excellent navigation performance even in the harsh environment.

Hey,
i get the error: setcursor was not declared in this scope.
Can you help me please?
I have made this but it doesnt display anything. Can you help me?
Before you;ve going to use it on the LCD try to use first the serial log / Write it on the serial log first. :D
I think the error is line 70: setCursor(0,1);
Should be: lcd.setCursor(0,1);
Updated… lcd.setCursor(0,1); most probably typo error. :D
