HOW DO GPS TRACKERS WORK?

Sean Horan2007 comments

Introduction

One of the most impactful innovations of the modern world has been GPS tracking. The thought of pulling out a map or memorizing directions seems nothing more than a distant memory these days. Although GPS tracking affects our daily lives, most of us do not know how it works or why they would even need to know. In this article, you will learn exactly how a GPS calculates its location and communicates this info back to you.

HOW DO GPS TRACKERS FIND THEIR LOCATION?

GPS trackers use a method called Trilateration to measure the distance of a point. Unlike triangulation, which uses the measurement of angles to determine location, trilateration uses the geometry of spheres to measure the distance between the tracker and the satellites. Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is a general term describing any satellite constellation that provides positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) services on a global or regional basis. The United States utilizes GPS, which is the most prevalent GNSS, and trilateration requires three or more satellites using precise clocks to measure the time it takes to ping the device which is then translated to distance. With three satellites providing this information the device can calculate the two intersection points, there being one in space and one on the Earth’s surface (Your Location). With the distance of a 4th satellite, your precise coordinates can be calculated without error.

Each satellite can calculate the distance. You can visualize a sphere around the satellite where the radii are the distance between the satellite and the tracker. The point where all 4 spheres intersect is the precise location of the GPS device.


Now that your device knows its location, it needs to communicate this data to a cell phone, mobile app, computer, etc., where the customer can make use of it. As long as a GPS tracker is receiving satellite signal it can store its location data in its internal memory buffer but to transmit that information remotely requires a SIM card.

 

 

 

The GPS device installed on the vehicle sends location data to the cell network. That data is broadcasted to the server hosting the web app associated with the device which can then be accessed by the client.


A GPS tracker’s operating system is simplistic with limited functionalities such as:

    • Receiving commands
    • Transmitting data:
      • Location
      • Speed
      • Motion
      • Directional

The features and tools used by clients to enhance their experience and capabilities are provided by the web app and can vary based on company. Optimus has a suite of helpful features to give you the best user experience:

    • Geofencing
    • Engine Cut off
    • Alerts:
      • Movement
      • Speeding
      • Power off
      • Harsh Braking/Accelerating/Turning
    • Detailed Reports
    • Historical Data
    • Send Commands:
      • Reporting frequency
      • Poll your position


CONCLUSION

The GPS satellites orbiting our planet have changed the course of history. With the genius of Trilateration and the power of GPS technology, ordinary people can tap into a system that yields the entire globe in the palm of your hand. Providing you with a bird’s eye view of all things dear to you and of value. Compliment that with Optimus Tracking’s top tier application and features. Get started today and protect your assets.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him FIX THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS TO ALL ACROSS THE GLOBE ON: Get your ex back spell Lottery Spell Love/Reunion Spell Pregnancy Spell Protection Spell Freedom From Prison Spell Marriage spell Killing/Revenge spell Healing/Cure spell Contact him for any of these today at: EMAIL: odungaspelltemple@gmail.com OR Call and WHATS-APP HIM +2348167159012

Ladies and gentlemen. I highly recommend the service of GEO COORDINATES HACKER. I have been in a financial mess for the past few months, I’m a single mother with kids to look after. I invested the sum of $357,800 in Bitcoin with a cryptocurrency company I met online. After a couple of weeks, my initial investment had increased from $203,800 to $579,850. This felt so good as the investment grew rapidly in just a few weeks. When it was time to withdraw, my withdrawal request was denied, all effort to make withdrawal declined, then I realized I had been ripped off. I came across Bobby Zion’s post on a blog where he talked about a hacker who helped him out called GEO COORDINATES HACKER. Thanks to GEO COORDINATES HACKER. For helping me out of my financial situation, I never believed because I have spent so much money on different hackers who did nothing other than running away with my money. I gave it a tryer, all I did was to follow the processing and be cooperative and today I am proud sharing the testimony of God-sent GEO COORDINATES HACKER. You can as well reach him through Email: geocoordinateshacker@proton.me. Or geovcoordinateshacker@gmail.com I keep saying thank you Geo Coordinates Hacker.. And God bless you for everything.

How can I recover my money from a fake Bitcoin investment website?Lost Recovery Masters I lost about £746,000 pounds worth of Crypto to a fake investment trading platform that tricked me into investing on their platform with the intent of earning a 15% daily profit. I was losing it all to a point that I couldn’t afford to take care of my bills and my Family. I was very disappointed with myself and was drowning in shame. I had to do a google search and came across Lost Recovery Masters, a cryptocurrency recovery company who are experts in recovering stolen and lost crypto funds. I immediately reached them out and explained my problem and they were able to recover 75% of my funds. I will recommend them to any victim out there trying to recover their funds back.
