How to Interface GPS Module (NEO-6m) with Arduino - Hackster.io

#include "SoftwareSerial.h" // Add the missing include statement

SoftwareSerial ss(4, 3); // GPS Module’s TX to D4 & RX to D3

void setup(){
  Serial.begin(9600);
  ss.begin(9600);
}

void loop(){
  while (ss.available() > 0){
    char gpsData = ss.read(); // Use char data type to store a single character
    Serial.write(gpsData);
  }
