Its very simple to use your raspberry pi to connect to your home network when you're at home, or to act as an access point in the field. 
Here's the tutorials used. Read all the comments before you begin the tutorial. https://thepi.io/how-to-use-your-raspberry-pi-as-a-wireless-access-point/#comment-6316

This picture was from my outing today. I was operating the Raspberry Pi as an access point. I connected to my Raspberry Pi with my Android tablet over VNC. 

Hope this helps

Getting GPS from your phone/tablet will be difficult unless they are running gpsd or similar.  You can USB tether or use your phone as a WiFi Hotspot.  Another option is a 4G LTE USB dongle and SIM card for the field -- or a router like in the video discussing 44-net VPN
