GPS Tracking
Global Positioning System

GPS technology uses a network of satellites and trigonometry to work out the exact position of a receiver in terms of latitude, longitude and altitude. If an object is moving, two readings, a known time apart, are therefore all that are needed to calculate speed, direction and distance traveled. If this data can then be captured and forwarded to those charged with predicting delivery times, tracking the progress of fleets or working out the most efficient routes, they are given a whole lot more valuable data to work with.

BuyToughPC technology partner TouchStar Technologies LTD has made great investments in GPS research and are producing solutions aimed at tracking the progress of vehicles as they go about their tasks, integrating the data into existing networks and delivering the results to enquiry desks, planners and logistics teams.

As a provider of mobile solutions, the opportunities brought by GPS are almost too important to overlook. By tracking deliveries, collections and service visits in time as well as space, a business’s powers of prediction are transformed from the superficial to the supernatural.

GPS technology will continue to present new ideas to any mobile operation and BuyToughPC will continue to provide products that integrate and optimize GPS technology.
