When choosing a suitable tracker, it is important to specify exactly what needs of the enterprise the selected equipment should satisfy. It can be simple location tracking for route planning, fuel consumption monitoring, temperature tracking, getting data from the on-board computer, reading data from a digital tachograph, etc. If there is already an installed monitoring system with trackers on some fleet of cars, it is important to make sure that the new tracker model is compatible with the existing software. First of all, trackers, like most electronic devices, need power. It can be a built-in battery or the ability to connect to an external source. Most trackers can be connected to the car battery through various methods such as cigarette lighter socket, jumper wires or OBDII connector. The functionality of the trackers can vary, including Bluetooth support for connecting additional sensors, CAN bus support for reading data from the on-board computer, the presence of additional buttons or inputs and outputs for connecting additional equipment. An important parameter is the input voltage supported by the tracker, as its compatibility with various types of vehicles depends on it. Also, the level of protection of the case plays an important role in choosing a tracker, as its resistance to external factors, such as dust and water, depends on it. To choose the best tracker, it is recommended to contact certified distributors who will provide professional advice and select the optimal devices for the specific needs of the enterprise. <iframe class="ql-video" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/4BPJ7QD6P0U?showinfo=0"></iframe>

Today, the Ukrainian market offers a wide range of GPS trackers from domestic and foreign manufacturers.

What to pay attention to when choosing a GPS tracker?

The GPS system works on the principle of trilateration, which means measuring the time it takes for a signal from a satellite to reach the receiver. This time is used to calculate the distance between the receiver and the satellite. Knowing the distance to several satellites at the same time, the receiver can determine its exact location on the Earth's surface. GPS receivers installed on vehicles are used to track transport in real time. Both a special tracker (GPS tracker) and a mobile phone or tablet equipped with a GPS module can be used as a receiver. <img src="https://test-web.m2m.ua//api/images/what-is-gps-2.jpg"> The most popular way to track vehicles is with a GPS tracker, a device that uses GPS technology to determine the location of the object to which it is attached or embedded. This device can be mounted on various objects such as cars, bicycles, ships, animals or even people. The main function of the GPS tracker is to track the location of the object in real time. Using a satellite connection, the GPS tracker transmits information about its current location to a server or mobile device, where this information can be displayed on a map or used to track the object's routes and activities. Some GPS trackers may have other additional features, such as a built-in accelerometer to detect movement or special sensors to measure temperature, humidity or other parameters, depending on the specific needs of the user. Such devices are often used to track the movement of vehicles, cargo, animals, children or for the safety of people in remote or dangerous areas.

GPS (Global Positioning System) is a system used to determine the location of objects on Earth at any time and at any point. It consists of satellites orbiting the Earth and receivers that receive signals from these satellites.
