Dashcam GPS Tracking: Road and Driver cameras

Buying GPS Trackers for Vehicles: 6 things to think about.

Selecting the right hardware for your use case is an important step in designing a system that will help your manage your business. A GPS Tracking system is made up of 5 parts including tracking devices, cellular or satellite networks, reporting rates, the desktop website or mobile apps to look at your data, and alerts that help you manage the vehicles and assets.

Tracking Devices Today, there is a broad selection of tracking devices to choose from. Wired devices can support higher reporting frequencies. Battery or Solar Powered Devices give GPS Tracking capabilities to other asset classes that don't have power supplies like trailers or trailered equipment.
Wired Devices include 3-wire installed and hidden devices and OBD-II plug-in devices.
Battery Devices come in both rechargeable and replaceable models. Batteries can last for days or years depending on the model and report less frequently to maintain the batteries.
Solar Powered Devices harness the sun's energy and can report at rates that come closer to wired devices. Depending on use case and location 5 or 15 minute reporting is realistic.
Cellular or Satellite Networks Cellular networks offer the best connectivity and reporting rates. In remote areas with poor cellular networks, gps tracking using the globalstar network is a great option.
Data Plans: Reporting Rates The reporting plan is selectable and the devices are programmed for different reporting rates based on your use cases. If you need detailed information on stops and speeding, choose a more frequent reporting rate. If you are selecting a battery powered device, less frequent reporting is your choice to maintain power longer.
