How GPS Tracking Helps Fleet Management

GPS tracking is one of the most advanced and efficient methods of effectively managing a fleet of vehicles. Vehicle tracking systems provide accurate and precise location information, usually within a few feet of the device. Incremental position updates are then made every few minutes or seconds depending on tracking method chosen.

The GPS data collected includes:

• Date and time of travel
• Direction of travel
• Latitude and longitude (or street addresses)
• Duration of idle time
• Speed of the vehicle

Number of miles logged

Fleet managers and dispatchers are able to see precisely where their vehicles are, how fast they are traveling, and the number of stops they performed. The location data gather from real-time GPS tracking systems greatly reduces the need to have constant verbal contact with the driver by cell phone or by two-way radio while on the road, reducing the risk of accidents.

GPS tracking systems are a cost-effective solution to help increase the overall efficiency, safety and productivity for fleet businesses and services, and can even be used to yield a potential return on investment.

GPS tracking systems provide a wealth of useful features that can help save companies’ valuable time, money and resources by allowing them to focuses not only on vehicle operation, but the personnel and equipment that support them. Some of the advantages of real-time GPS tracking for fleet management include:
