A GPS is a great tool for that.  We use one for antenna aiming, etc.

Does anyone in the wireless group have a GPS unit they'd want to lend
to our collectivized project tools? It seems like such a thing would
be useful for antenna aiming calculations, for field testing of
antennas (go out in a field, take a bunch of measurements from a bunch
of different points and be able to plot them on a graph based on
location). 

Once we get antennas permanently mounted it would be nice to map out
field strength contours so we know where we'll have channel conflicts
and such.

It'd be nice to connect a GPS to netstumbler and get a good wardrive
map of our target areas.
