Software for a GPS logger should also ultimately be developed. Often one can upload the GPS log straight to Google Maps and plot the path there, which could aid in relevant data analysis for both projects.

Homemade GPS Receiver

This is relevant to both the monarch butterfly tracking project and the drones project. The goal would be to attempt to build a highly accurate GPS receiver from scratch, and then potentially modify the circuitry to improve efficiency and compactness to suit the needs of a broad range of projects.
