What Is Live Satellite Tracking?
Live satellite tracking is a process in which a person or asset can be tracked anywhere in the world using precise location. Tracking devices are usually GPS-enabled; GPS or Global Positioning System uses the Global Navigation System (GNSS) network to enable precise locations to be transmitted in real-time. As well as a person or asset’s location, live satellite tracking can also track the movement of a vehicle, object, or person.
Using live satellite tracking, satellites can send you up-to-date details and timely alerts so you know precisely where your people and assets are. Using the information provided through live satellite tracking, a company can make decisions such as changing company policies or instigating improvements to cut waste or minimise errors.
GPS data allows for operations to be streamlined, thanks to the greater clarity that live satellite tracking offers. Unlike smart devices that utilise less reliable mobile phone networks and Wi-Fi, GPS is entirely driven by connecting to orbiting satellites.
As such, it’s possible to keep track of people and assets even in the remotest parts of the world. Anyone viewing the tracking data can see whether the engine of a vehicle is running and/ or if the employee is on the clock. They can see a vehicle’s location and the route it took. They can check the fuel level and speed of the vehicle. They can even look for maintenance alerts of possible mechanical issues.
Benefits of Live Satellite Tracking
So, now that you know what live satellite tracking is, just what benefits does it bring to the table? Is it worth the investment? Will it really have that much of an impact on your operations? Surely your money is better spent on something else. The short answer is that live satellite tracking is a fantastic investment that’ll easily pay for itself.
Just some of the benefits of switching to this method of tracking include:
- Accurate Timekeeping
- Better Fuel Efficiency
- Efficient Driver and Fleet Management
- Improvements In Route Planning
- Less Paperwork
- Lower Insurance Premiums
- Lower Maintenance Costs
With live satellite tracking, you have increased accountability with hard data replacing word of mouth and logs that can be easily falsified. With accurate timekeeping, a company can create accurate schedules and even optimise routes to improve efficiency. Companies can explore safer routes while monitoring signs indicative of dangerous driver behaviour.
They can check for manipulation of clocking in/ out, optimise fuel costs, and look at ways to boost productivity across the board. Because of the persistent and detailed nature of using satellites to track assets, you can always see where your assets are and what your employees are doing, even if they are on the other side of the world.
Live satellite tracking empowers you with complete operational awareness, so you’re not left wishing for the best and trusting the honesty of your team.
