My guess is that you will need some sort of device to log the data from the GPS and then transmit it across a wireless network (pager, SMS, cell phone). At your base station, you would have capture the messages, parse them, and then probably stuff the data into a database (PostGIS?).

Your MapServer map file could then point to the spatial data layer in PostGIS. Every hit to MapServer would show the latest data.

I would just like to mention that if help with automating this is needed, I could easily develop a solution for Mac OS X.

GIS automation on the Mac is my specialty. ;)
