Product Review

After testing and taking a look at this Ublox GPS Module, I have found out that this product exhibits many great factors including:
1. The accurate and detailed positioning data given by this GPS module for: tracking, finding out your exact location, satellite communication, etc..
2. The small and compact size of this module so that it could be used in multiple portable projects and cases.
3. The simple software and programming included with this product in order to get the maximum capabilities and functions.

Even though this product can receive satellite signals to get your exact position, it requires a wide, open space to be used in; where there are no obstructions in the way because it could cause a blockage in the communication, thus, not giving you any data at all. Additionally, I highly recommend any external antenna (SMA interface) for a better signal communication when you are blocked by certain objects or buildings. It isn't necessary to this module's operations but it will be a big advantage to you if you have one.

Ublox Neo-7N GPS Module Sample Code

#include <TinyGPS++.h>
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
static const int RXPin = 4, TXPin = 3;
static const uint32_t GPSBaud = 4800;
TinyGPSPlus gps;
SoftwareSerial ss(RXPin, TXPin);

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(115200);
  ss.begin(GPSBaud);
  Serial.println(F("Ublox Neo-7N GPS Module Test"));
  Serial.println();
}

void loop()
{
  while (ss.available() > 0)
    if (gps.encode(ss.read()))
      displayInfo();

  if (millis() > 5000 && gps.charsProcessed() < 10)
  {
    Serial.println(F("No GPS detected: check wiring."));
    while(true);
  }
}

void displayInfo()
{
  Serial.print(F("Location: ")); 
  if (gps.location.isValid())
  {
    Serial.print(gps.location.lat(), 6);
    Serial.print(F(","));
    Serial.print(gps.location.lng(), 6);
  }
  else
  {
    Serial.print(F("INVALID"));
  }

  Serial.print(F("  Date/Time: "));
  if (gps.date.isValid())
  {
    Serial.print(gps.date.month());
    Serial.print(F("/"));
    Serial.print(gps.date.day());
    Serial.print(F("/"));
    Serial.print(gps.date.year());
  }
  else
  {
    Serial.print(F("INVALID"));
  }
  Serial.print(F(" "));
  if (gps.time.isValid())
  {
    if (gps.time.hour() < 10) Serial.print(F("0"));
    Serial.print(gps.time.hour());
    Serial.print(F(":"));
    if (gps.time.minute() < 10) Serial.print(F("0"));
    Serial.print(gps.time.minute());
    Serial.print(F(":"));
    if (gps.time.second() < 10) Serial.print(F("0"));
    Serial.print(gps.time.second());
    Serial.print(F("."));
    if (gps.time.centisecond() < 10) Serial.print(F("0"));
    Serial.print(gps.time.centisecond());
  }
  else
  {
    Serial.print(F("INVALID"));
  }
  Serial.println();
}
