The Many Uses of GPS Vehicle Tracking Systems
Of all the wonderful new technologies that have entered our lives over the past couple of decades, few have had as much impact as GPS, geographical positioning systems. The concept of GPS is that a small receiver uses satellite signals to figure out accurately where it is on the planet. GPS has revolutionised navigation and transportation, enabled mapping systems in millions of vehicles, and is being used in myriads of other applications. When I turn on my phone, it often politely inquires if it may use its internal GPS receiver to determine its location and thus make available a whole bunch of services no one dreamed would be possible just a few short years ago. And telematics technology is being used in more and more applications where it is very important to know one’s exact location or the location of equipment. One of the most exciting applications is GPS vehicle tracking.
