Looking for a geolocator
 
Must weigh 5 grams or under.

When I Google for vendors all I get are folks selling web-based geolocators for point of origin sales. I'm after a small backpack device, not a software solution to sales.

Post links if you have a source.

I'm pretty good at knowing where the world is, but I weight a lot more than 5 grams.

What exactly are you looking for?

The 5 gram thing is the hurdle. I know where to get fist-sized GPS and I sure don't need RTK accuracy no matter the size.

These may be completely unsuitable for your application, but..

have you read about these light-based devices that they've been using to track bird migrations?

Check this one out, 5 grams though? batteries alone would hit that.

Perfect.

Now I need either a vendor or a circuit diagram and parts list.
