Real-Time Maps with Golang, Raspberry Pi, and HERE XYZ

June 14, 2019 at 07:00 PM

The Raspberry Pi is a powerful, yet portable, computer that is compatible with many hardware modules, making it a desirable Internet of Things (IoT) device. Pair it with the Go programming language and you have powerful applications built specifically for the ARM architecture which the Raspberry Pi operates.

HERE XYZ is a cloud-based data management service for location data, making it a powerful tool when combined with many IoT projects.

In this session we’ll explore how to collect GPS data with a Raspberry Pi and Golang, then display it in real-time as the data is collected, on an interactive map using HERE XYZ.
