Published by GPS Technologies Team A dash cam doesn’t need GPS to record video, but a dash cam with GPS is far more useful. GPS stamps every clip with the vehicle’s location, speed, date, and time, which turns raw footage into evidence you can place on a map. For fleets, a GPS-connected dash cam also links video to tracking data, so you can find, verify, and share the right clip in minutes. Below, we break down what GPS adds to dash cam footage, when it matters most, how standalone GPS dash cams compare with dash cams built into a telematics system, and what commercial fleets...

Satellite tracking devices for vehicles work by receiving signals from GPS satellites to calculate the vehicle’s position, then sending that location to a tracking platform. Every GPS tracker uses satellites to find its location. What makes a device a “satellite tracker” is that it also sends its data through a satellite network instead of a cellular network, so it keeps reporting in remote areas with no cell coverage. Most fleet trackers combine GPS positioning with cellular reporting, which covers the majority of roads and job sites at a lower cost. This guide explains what satellite tracking is, how the technology... View Article
