    Hi,

    Not really home automation related but still IoT ...
    I want to have a unit to place in the car to track the location.

    The unit shall boot when ignition is on in the car and start to track the location every approx 5 sec on a SD-card. Later this SD-card shall be "exported" to computer for driving journal.

    Since Arduino is quick in booting compared to Raspberry I primarily looking into Arduino - but can change to RPi.
    Though RPI has the advantage of SD-card built in and potential of WiFi to sync the data when at home.

    Do you have any good experience of GPS card and recommendation?
    I think I have at least one Arduino Mini and Nano available - but would it be better of with Uno, Mega,...or?

    Any tips and ideas are appreciated :)

    Regards
    Joacim
