Get To Know Vehicle Tracking

By RAM Tracking on 2 Apr 2025

GPS trackers are small, portable devices that help businesses monitor their vehicle fleets. They provide instant access to location, speed, and direction data. These devices offer valuable features for fleet managers and business owners.

Vehicle tracking gives you complete fleet visibility. You can monitor your vehicles' locations even when you're not on-site. This is essential for businesses managing multiple vehicles and wanting to optimise their fleet operations.

Understanding GPS Vehicle Tracking Technology

A vehicle GPS tracker uses satellite technology to pinpoint your car's exact location. The system works 24/7 to provide real-time updates about your vehicle's position, speed, and movement patterns.

Modern GPS trackers do more than just show location. They offer advanced features like geofencing, driver behaviour monitoring, and theft alerts.

How GPS Car Tracking Technology Works

GPS tracking technology is surprisingly straightforward. Here's the process:

The GPS Network

A GPS tracker is a small device installed in your vehicle. It uses the Global Positioning System (GPS) - a network of satellites orbiting Earth.

Signal Reception

The GPS receiver in your tracker receives signals from at least four satellites. It calculates the time difference between these signals to determine the distance to each satellite.

Location Calculation

Using these distance measurements, the device pinpoints your vehicle's exact location. This information is then transmitted to our secure servers.

Additional Features

Modern trackers offer more than basic location services:

  • Geofencing alerts - Set virtual boundaries around specific areas
  • Speed monitoring - Receive alerts for excessive speeding
  • Direction changes - Monitor sudden route deviations
  • Driver behaviour analysis - Track harsh braking and rapid acceleration

Effective Methods for Tracking Company Vehicles

If your company vehicle is stolen and has a GPS tracker installed, follow these proven methods:

1. Contact Police Immediately

Report the theft to the police right away. Provide them with:

  • Your vehicle's make and model
  • GPS tracking device information
  • Device ID number
  • Your RAM Tracking login details

2. Monitor Your Tracker

Log in to your RAM Tracking account or app. Monitor your vehicle's location in real-time. Keep detailed records of the vehicle's movements.

3. Coordinate with the Police

Share location updates with the police regularly. They'll use this information to track down thieves and recover your vehicle.

Provide continuous updates as the vehicle moves. Real-time data helps police plan their recovery strategy.

4. Vehicle Recovery

Once police locate your vehicle, they'll handle the recovery process. Follow their instructions for a safe and successful recovery.

Important Safety Note

GPS tracking significantly improves recovery chances, but it's not foolproof. Thieves may try to disable or remove the device.

Use additional security measures:

  • Steering wheel locks
  • Car alarms
  • Immobilizers
  • Secure parking
