What is GPS?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system made up of at least 24 satellites. It can work anywhere, regardless of weather conditions or location. Fleet tracking and telematics is a management system that uses GPS tracking for fleets to monitor the activity of fleet vehicles, employees and equipment.
How Does GPS Work?
GPS fleet tracking uses telematics technology to collect data from fleet vehicles and assets. A GPS tracking device is attached to a fleet vehicle, allowing it to accurately determine the vehicle's position.
Benefits of Telematics for Fleet Vehicles
For businesses, the main benefit of fleet vehicle tracking is geo-locating your company vehicles; however, GPS tracking is just one of several helpful features of a well-rounded, comprehensive Telematics program. Telematics can give your fleet access to other important diagnostic
features, such as fuel consumption data and driver safety, which will ensure your fleet is running more efficiently and safely.
Telematics can help you gain access to a wealth of real-time, vehicle-specific data, including GPS location, speed, fuel usage and engine performance, and capture insights that will help you improve fleet performance and savings.
