Hi.
Yes.
But the Arduino needs to have access to mobile data. You need an aditional module to do that.

Is it possible to get the values from the gps in this format in the email?

MMSI: 123456789 (fixed number)
LAT=60.1586916
LON=5.4292635
SPEED=11.2
COURSE=256
TIMESTAMP=2020-10-18 08:24

Regards
Kristian

Hi.
We don’t have any tutorial about that using Raspberry Pi.
We have these tutorials that use Arduino:

Hi.
You just need to add an if statement to check whether a button was pressed or not. If the button was pressed, run the GPS code that sends the location.
To control a button using python with the Raspberry Pi, you can use the gpiozero library. It is very easy to use. Take a look at the documentation on the following link: gpiozero.readthedocs.io/en/stable/

Sara

Is it possible to run the GPS and detect lat and long using a switch or a sensor? If yes, could you please tell me how to?
Thanks

I can’t think of a single reasonable use for it – particularly in the suggested format of being powered by a mains adaptor.

Los are quite heavy on current usage, just on their own, so even a battery powered version might not be that practical.

Nice technique though and it must be useful for something…
