GPS Tracking Solutions

 
GPS tracking systems use the global positioning system (GPS) to establish the location of the item being tracked, e.g. a vehicle, and then transmit this information to the system’s base station. These systems usually have dispatcher / controller software that includes the facility to show the locations of the tracked items on a map. Other facilities are detailed below.

Other outdoor systems, e.g. covert, may rely on the direction-finding of the item being tracked. This may be achieved using a mobile-mounted detection system or perhaps radio receivers at fixed locations through which the tracked item is likely to travel / stop, e.g. major ferry terminals.

GPS tracking systems can be covert or overt:


A covert tracking system may remain dormant until the vehicle or trailer on which it is mounted is, perhaps, stolen. At this time the mobile radio is activated remotely and the vehicle emits a regular transmission so that it may be traced. There is one system available that operates on a frequency that is used in most of Western Europe thereby enabling vehicles to also be activated and tracked whilst out of the UK.


An overt system may have (often software-based) facilities. These could include:

Two-way communications and messaging between the controller and the vehicles, enabling:

  • a single radio channel to communicate an individual call, group call and all call messaging to vehicles – this method negates the need for multiple radio channels to communicate with individual talk groups
  • job details, directions, etc, to be sent directly to the vehicles  
  • automatic message receipt confirmation    
  • predefined text sending, e.g. job completed   


Real-time location tracking, enabling:


  • confirmation of handheld radio users’ expected locations
  • planned vehicle route adherence, e.g. highlighting detours   
  • vehicle speed reporting, e.g. enabling delays to be predicted   
  • site visit confirmation  


Fleet utilisation and job despatching - enabling drivers to visit sites near to their vehicle’s location or en route to a site.

Geo-fencing
- identification of vehicles leaving a working area, e.g. hijackings or unauthorised use, etc.


Monitoring of cab and trailer systems:

  • cab alarm activation   
  • mileage monitoring, e.g. fuel usage calculation, and vehicle servicing management   
  • temperature alerting for refrigerated trailers   


Automatic and driver-activated alarms and alerts sent to mobile phones or email addresses, enabling:

  • improved security and protection for drivers and vehicles
  • drivers to be notified of problems immediately, e.g. cab alarm activation   
  • managers to be notified of problems when out of the office   


Historical data collation, enabling -
post-event analysis of daily routes, etc.

Full reporting suite
- multiple format reports.
