Vehicle-mounted GPS tracking devices form an invaluable part of keeping tabs on vehicle location, particularly when they are on the move. Using the latest GPS tracking devices, businesses can determine the exact location of a moving vehicle or person.

​

This information, which businesses receive in real-time, is particularly useful for businesses that rely on vehicles as part of their service, whether delivering items or working in repairs services. As the information and data is gathered and processed in an easily accessible app, businesses can quickly and effortlessly make changes to timetables and or work assignments as appropriate.

Businesses are also able to see any delays as they happen, potential reasons for a vehicle’s delay, and can, in turn, reassign vehicles as necessary. GPS helps save time and money by ensuring that drivers can be reassigned to jobs should they be closer to the destination than the originally assigned driver.

​

By integrating GPS tracking into the way they work, businesses increase their fleet’s mobility and ability to get work done quickly. As a result, it ensures that businesses remain constantly aware of where their vehicles are at any given point, and keep across the board costs down.

As a space-based satellite navigation system, GPS tracking provides information on time and location, factoring in weather and other environmental conditions. This can occur only so long as there is a direct line of sight to four or more GPS satellites.

​

GPS tracking is particularly useful for businesses that:

•  Depend on fleet management solutions to manage their fleet of vehicles;

•  Require asset in transit tracking;

•  Require tracking on containers.

​

GPS tracking works by incorporating a module that receives a GPS signal and calculates the coordinates. Each coordinate that comes through from the GPS tracker is transmitted via SMS or GPRS (as IP packets), and stored on a centralized database.
