GPS technology has permeated many areas of everyday life and become very useful to all of us. It has become a very useful technology in many industries as well. The ability to conduct commercial fleet tracking has been in particular a very valuable addition to many fleet owners.
Primarily this helps with keeping an eye on where the vehicles and drivers have been, where they are going and where they are right now. This in turn helps the company estimate how long goods will take to arrive at a destination or how long the driver will take to get back. This also helps to improve discipline and keep drivers in line when they come up with explanations as to why they were late. A relatively cheaper solution is the usage of cell phone gps tracking. However, this method has limitations and is not very tamper proof.
Another great use for this device is tracking vehicles when they are stolen. Although the lojack system already does this quite well, GPS can take it several steps further. It does not need any detection devices to be close to find it. In fact, the detection devices are far above the Earth covering the entire globe. This enables any vehicle to be tracked anywhere in the world, provided that the device has not been removed. This enables you to virtually see where the vehicle is on a map and with an accuracy of a few feet, which is something that lojack cannot do for you.
