# Neo 6m GPS Serial Direct

- neo6mgps_serial_direct.py

- created by mahemys; 2019.08.28

- !perfect, but works!

- GNU-GPL; no license; free to use!

- update 2019-08-28; initial review

**purpose**

- neo-6m gps module data collection using serial port of the device and plotting relevant graphs using matplotlib

**how to use**

- just copy file to your location

- run this python script in terminal

- create a routine to run at start

**requirements**

- sqlite3 for database

- serial for serial port communication

- matplotlib for graphs

**process**

- using serial port communication save gps data into the database

- first convert db to csv; neo6mgps_db.db -> neo6mgps.csv

- run `neo6mgps_plot_uptime.py` to generate **uptime graphs** like No of Satellites; No of Records

- run `neo6mgps_plot_blackouts.py` to generate **downtime or blackouts graphs** like Blackouts duration; Total No of Blackouts

**sample**

- csv file       neo6mgps.csv

- uptime graph   Neo-6m_GPS_Uptime.png

- downtime graph Neo-6m_GPS_Blackouts.png
