Accuracy of Lightweight Satellite Telemetry: a Case Study in the Iberian Peninsula

Accuracy of Lightweight Satellite Telemetry: a Case Study in the Iberian Peninsula

Here we provide the first assessment of the accuracy of lightweight satellite transmitters (1,000 g, conventional PTTs can be as small as 9.5 g, allowing their use with animals weighting 250–300 g.
