Would be great if this could upload the gateway location either from a fixed position through the web interface (perhaps using a browser location toolkit) or through connection to an I2C gps module if you are in a chase car

Its a good suggestion, I'll go have a look. Would be nice if there was a GPS shield for the Wemos mini to go with it...

I think with the Charles Hallard shield it would need to be an I2C connection as there aren't really any lines for software serial left unless the main serial port is used.

The idea of browser geolocation with HTML 5 seemed reasonable but it seems modern phones insist on an ssl connection to transfer location data

I've started adding this in branch - https://github.com/HarringayMakerSpace/HabitatLoraGateway/tree/add-gateway-location

Just manually enter the latitude/longitude presently, but that gets the gateway appearing on the habhub tracker map
