Super-Duper site! I love it!! I believe I’m right to say GPS is more accurate than GSM tracking?

Maybe a Trackstick would do the trick.

Here are 10Hz mini GPS modules available: http://www.perthold.de/index_p_en.htm (bottom of page). I got the module for 25 USD.

@adam
It would be possible to get up to 5hz using the EB-85A gpp reciever ( http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8266), although the GPS used for this tracker only supports 1 update per second. I haven't looked at his code, but I believer that it would work 'out of the box' using the eb-85a gps and log 5 samples per second.

BTW, I am working on a gps logger than also transmits the location and some sensor data back to a base station for rocket tracking applications. http://krazerlasers.com/gps/

Come on miked, we don’t need your approval or disapproval for every post. It’s getting a little old.

Adam – To my knowledge 1 per second is standard. To get better time stamps you need to implement an RTK (real time kinetics) system.

as a big hackaday fan, I’m very surprised and happy to find out the nano logger I’ve done here :)

Note: it’s build around PIC16F876, not PIC16F872.
