What should be a GPS tracker?
Hello. There is an idea to assemble a tracker for cars and motorcycles.
I plan the following parameters and functions:
1) Real-time tracking on the map
2) Engine operation status
3) Easy installation
4) Statistics
5) Mains power (but there is also a built-in battery that will last for 6 hours)
6) Wi-fi for more accurate coordinates
7) Web and mobile application (setting parameters, tracking trackers)
8) Ability to connect an external gps antenna
9) Dust / moisture protection (for a motorcycle)
10) Built-in memory to write logs when there is no Internet
11) High-precision accelerometer
The size will be about 6x5x1.5cm
I would like to know your opinion. Will such a tracker be in demand? If you have any ideas about the functionality, I will be grateful for good advice.

If you are doing it for your own use (the user is the owner of the transport vehicle), then here are some tips from practice:
1) as practice has shown, this item is necessary only in special situations, it is much more important in my opinion to be able to quickly activate this mode on a remote call or SMS). The constant transmission of coordinates to the server does not carry any special information.
4, 7) are determined by the server software. A free service is enough for me (for example, you can read reviews and comparisons of such services on Habré ).
6) A more accurate definition in this way is possible in rooms and other covered spaces (will you use a car or a motorcycle there?). But a faster determination of coordinates in this way is yes, especially in the city.
From the undescribed, I recommend an accelerometer (to determine movement, impact or falls).
You declared a rather compact size, share a description of the filling (if it's not a secret, of course).
Thanks for the answer.
The device is designed for commercial use. The frequency of transmitting coordinates is set by the user.
I forgot to indicate the presence of an accelerometer, and a high-precision one with a high range. (I'll add it in paragraph 11)
As for the filling ... new technologies allow you to place sensors and antennas in a compact package. Perhaps the battery will not allow leaving such dimensions, but in any case, the tracker will be quite compact.
