| How
GPS Works |
| GPS
vehicle and fleet tracking devices work in conjunction with
cellular telephone and Internet technology. Utilizing a vehicle-mounted
GPS receiver and a built in cellular transmitter, the vehicle’s
location, speed, and direction are transmitted over a wireless
network; e.g., every 2 minutes, to a web server. If you need
to know your vehicles’ location in between the 2-minute
reporting intervals, you can “ping” or “poll”
your vehicle to get its real-time location. |
| This
is a web-based application — there is no software to purchase,
nor are you bothered with system requirements, upgrades or enhancements
— and you can access your vehicle and fleet information
from any computer that has Internet access and a browser. This
information can immediately be viewed, or since it is saved
on the server as well, it can be accessed at any time that is
convenient for you. |
| While
standard reports; e.g. Fuel
Tax Report, are available to be viewed or printed at your
convenience, you also have the ability to very easily generate
customized reports per your specific needs and requests. |
