    All of the standalone GPS modules I've seen use a serial interface. I would use a wireless console, and use a serial port to interface with the GPS. There are libraries that support the protocols that the GPS modules speak, such as NMEA. It is fairly simple to parse, you can easily do it yourself. Some modules have faster serial protocols that require a bit more footwork, but they will default to NMEA if you set them properly.

     

    You can have problems if the GPS is at a different level than the card, so you might need some sort of level shifter.

     

    There are many projects online that do this sort of thing. Just search around. Here is one:

    I can't vouch for it, I just searched and found it.
