You might want to look into APRS (Automatic Packet are porting System). It's a technology that transmits position data (GPS) via Amateur Radio through a gateway to the Internet. Then you can track it from a web page. Hams use it track each other just driving around, high altitude balloons flying cross country, parachutists while jumping and so on.
