May be the history of GPS could be used to approximate the speed. Of course, it's not accurate but when you assume facts like: * you have already slow down your vehicle before entering the tunnel * you will never accelerate in the tunnel * max tunnel length of 3km the variance should not be so huge. At least it's easier than connect the tachometer. The other question is: do you really need the correct position in the tunnel? If you know the position when the signal get lost and know that you are in that special tunnel it should be enough. Of course, it makes more sens in urban "tunnels" between huge buildings. Correct me if I'm wrong, don't know tunnels outside Europe.
