Fleet tracking device have always formed an inevitable part of the fleet business. They are the best companion of the owner and true mentor of the manager of a fleet.

All the tracking devices fall under two types:

  1. Active Device: These types of devices are mostly used in the fleet business when compared to passive device. And truly so, as they provide the real time update of every information related to fleet and vehicle. They not only provide information but also store the same in the system with which they are attached. This information and data can be seen by the manager and owner from anywhere in the world using the softwares or the online sites that provide these facilities.
  2. Passive Device: These devices do store the information like the speed of the vehicle, fuel usage, halts that are made by the vehicle, how long were they made, route of the vehicle and driver profile too. But the all these information are stored and can only be viewed once the fleet or vehicle is back from the fieldwork. This is the reason that they lack behind. Owner cannot monitor the real time movement of his fleet.

Fleet tracking device like GPS (Global Positioning System) and GLONASS (Global Navigation Satellite Services) are mostly used by the owner and manager of the fleet. They work on the signals that are emitted by the satellite and the tower that are close to fleet. Using these signals the receiver that is attached to vehicle determines the exact position of the vehicle.
