While cell phone GPS tracking has become the rage very recently, it will be interesting to know that until it was opened to the public, the US military used it as a ‘navigation system’ with the help of 24 satellites.
Not only can one get GPS data at all times but in the most atrocious weather conditions as well. The beauty of using such technology is that this tracking device can be inserted into your cell phone and is undistinguishable to the naked eye.
What makes this even better is that even with such a small receiver, it works within vehicles, parking structures, building and heavy equipment, so one can locate their coordinates at any given time regardless of any perceived physical obstacles.
Then there is real time GPS vehicle tracking that is able to give you the location of any given vehicle at any given point of time, and for this, certain hardware and software has to be installed at the control center and on the vehicle.
Interestingly, this comes with a lot of benefits such as being able to track the position of a vehicle that is carrying a load that needs to be transported from one place to another. Apart from being able to locate stolen goods, reduce unnecessary idle time and misuse of vehicle, one will notice that this will also reduces insurance rates by 35%.
Finally, GPS tracking fleet management is also good for commercial use where an entire fleet of vehicles can be tracked, so as to have a greater degree of control over schedules and efficiency in general.
