  STORY

  Read GPS data from thingspeak and show it in the Google map using ESP12e Nodemcu and GPS Neo 6M Module. We will upload the data on thingspeak server using ESP12e Nodemcu module. The data is being continuously taken from GPS Neo 6m Module which is connected to our ESP12e Nodemcu module. In this tutorial we are going to see step by step process to connect GPS Neo 6M Module with ESP12e Nodemcu, creating thingspeak channel where latitude and longitude will be updated and finally creating a web page where this data will be parsed in Google map using the google map api key.

  Bread board setup to Read GPS data from thingspeak and show it in the Google map using ESP12e Nodemcu and GPS Neo 6M Module will require you to setup and connect ESP12e nodemcu module with Neo 6m GPS module. Follow the below step by step instruction to setup the circuit on breadboard. I hope you already have gathered all the components necessary for this tutorial. Also please use the below circuit diagram for reference while making the circuit. Make sure that you are tallying each and every circuit connection from the given circuit diagram.

  Thingspeak Channel Creation

  I am assuming that you already have a thingspeak account. If not then visit https://thingspeak.com/ and create your account. And follow the below process:

  1. Create a new channel on thingspeak and create two fields

  2. Click save channel in the below of the page and copy the below credentials in a text file. We will use it further for our program.
