GPS Tracking - Don't Leave Home Without One!
By Robert Paterson
GPS stands for Global Positioning System. It is one of the greatest tools that modern technology has given us. Invisible in the sky high above, there is a network of 24 satellites in orbit around the Earth giving us constant information to tell us our exact map location, or the location of anyone or any vehicle. It also gives information about the speed of a vehicle and its direction of travel. Why is tracking information useful? 1. For parents, it's now possible to keep track of where your teenage kids are when they drive, particularly if they are driving long distances, say to and from college.
2. Also for parents, you can know where your children are, and check that they are not in any places they should not be.
3. For the thirty- and forty-somethings, a GPS tracking system can take the worry out of your elderly parents driving long distances. You know where they are at any given moment.
4. If you have a business providing customer service, a GPS allows you to know at a glance which of your drivers is closest to where the customer is.
5. For employers, it allows you to monitor how fast your drivers are going, if they are breaking speed limits, or if they are taking too long a break, or if they really are where they are supposed to be.
6. Many insurance companies are now offering discounts for vehicles that are protected by having GPS tracking systems. |

Very informative article.
Very interesting. GPS's are also used for boat navigation and hand-held ones are great for a hide and seek hiking game called geocaching. Technology keeps making our world smaller, doesn't it.
FYI, the rogue screeners seem to be gone now.
