Sistema seguimiento GPS / GPS tracking system

Hello, I would like to create a GPS system for sheep. The cattle will be in the minimum mount between 90 and 100 days. I wish I could get the coordinates and send them to my own server.
I'm thinking of buying a Moteino-USB but I don't know what else I need.
On the page https://lowpowerlab.com/shop/product/100 I don't know which transceiver to choose.
It is for use in Spain, I do not know if this information is needed to choose the model or not.
I understand that the transceiver is only to send the data to the server.
What GPS part would you need to buy?
Also, what antennas would I need to buy?

Right now I have created a system with an Arduino UNO, a GPS / GSM board and a 10,000 mAh battery that sends coordinates to the server every 2.30 hours, but even putting everything in sleep mode during the standby time the battery runs out in very few days.

Can you please help me?

Hola, quisiera crear un sistema GPS para ovejas. El ganado estará en el monte mínimo entre 90 y 100 días. Quisiera poder obtener las coordenadas y enviarlas a un servidor propio.
Estoy pensando en comprar un Moteino-USB pero no sé que más me hace falta.
En la página https://lowpowerlab.com/shop/product/100 no sé que transceptor elegir.
Es para utilizarlo en España, no sé si hace falta esta información para elegir el modelo or no.
Entiendo que el transceptor es sólo para enviar los datos al servidor.
¿Qué pieza GPS haría falta comprar?.
También, ¿qué antenas me harían falta comprar?.

Ahora mismo he creado un sistema con un Arduino UNO, una placa GPS/GSM y una batería de 10.000 mAh que envía coordenadas al servidor cada 2.30 horas, pero aun poniendo todo en modo dormido durante el tiempo de espera la batería se agota en muy pocos días.

Me podéis ayudar por favor?

Depending on your scenario you might not need a transceiver if your node is out where you only have GPRS signal. In that case you just need a low power microcontroller to wake up periodically and transmit coordinates from a GPS+GPRS unit (something like a A9G) to your server, then power down everything and sleep.
Any Moteino will be much lower power than a UNO.

A sug-ghz transceiver (like the RFM69 or RFM95/LoRa) is useful when you have a closed circuit network (or perhaps hop on an open network like TTN) to publish your data through a gateway/concentrator.

Ok, thank you very much for answering.
I have a doubt, do I need a Moteino-USB and an A9G or with just an A9G would be enough?
I am thinking of buying Maduino Zero A9G.
Sorry for my ignorance, I am a software programmer, this world of electronics is new to me.


Vale, muchas gracias por contestar.
Tengo una duda, ¿necesito un Moteino-USB y un A9G o con sólo una A9G sería suficiente?.
Estoy pensando en comprar Maduino Zero A9G.
Perdón por mi ignorancia, yo soy programador de Software, este mundo de la electrónica es nuevo para mi.

I'm not familiar with Maduino A9G but it looks like it could work since its based on a SAMD21 and has the A9G module for GPS/GPRS onboard.
