The GPS receiver is used to get accurate geographical location by receiving information from satellites. Using information from 3 or more satellites, the exact position of the GPS can be triangulated. It gives latitude and longitudes with accuracy of degree-minute-second. Using this latitude and longitude co-ordinates one can easily trace out the location on entire globe. The GPS receiver gives output serially in form of strings with NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association) 0183 protocol. These strings are received serially by 8051 microcontroller for display or to take any decision. These information including time and date are displayed in LCD in a proper format.
