There are numerous other GPS, TV and communication satellites you can track. You can also chick on what satellites are above you right now such as XM radio. There is also a list of most popular items tracked. Check out the website. It is fun to see what is above you.
Cell phone lookup technology has increased dramatically with many models having integrated GPS systems expanded with the ability to provide you with navigation information. Your cell phone can now receive and calculate signals from multiple satellites through low energy radio signals. By triangulating these signals your location can be pinpointed. Once the GPS knows your location and your desired destination it can display your route.
As mention above the GPS tracking system could protect your asset from being stolen and not just that you could visualize the path of your fleet. Like the movement, where your fleet are stopping, the speed, and the millage. You can control your fleet for 24 hours and 365 days per year. You have all about your fleet's data. So, if something bad happen like accident or being robbed, you can contact the police right away.
There are four main types of GPS systems, each designed around a specific activity. The military was the driving force behind development of the Global Positioning System but other organizations and businesses quickly saw the potential of the technology and developed applications to fit their particular needs. All the portable GPS navigator systems available today are the result of these early applications.
Yes, GPS systems are no longer just for men who refuse to ask for driving directions (sorry, that was my attempt at humor)! They are now used to track lost dogs as well (and from what I hearlost cats too!). Though relatively new (and yes, very expensive) GPS dog tracking collars are becoming quite a popular item, especially among dog owners who have pups that tend to stray.
