We had an approach using GPS with robotics (not with Mindstorms indeed).
We noticed that the only way to use GPS is to have a differential GPS. There
you have a reference station, which knows its exact position. This station
looks at the satelites and computes the error from the satelites and sends
it on a radio frequency. We reached 1-2 m accuracy.

As a footnote:
Notably, when SA is turned on, both GPS units must use the same
satellites for this to work.
