The artillery thing might also be for something like the Copperhead laser-guided round, or it might also work with submunition dispensers, too.
The only application that immediately springs to my mind for unguided shells is GPS confirmation of where rounds land or perhaps reporting on wind and temperature conditions that might influence trajectory. I'm not a redleg, though, so the details of what you'd want to know about munitions in transit are mostly unfamiliar to me.
