These days, GPS tracking devices are significantly helping fleet business owners to conquer many obstacles. Most fleet managers realize that GPS fleet tracking assists their business by making field process simpler to control, however, they might not know they also help with invoicing as well. Below are some ways GPS tracking simplifies invoicing.

Simplify Billing

It can be tedious and time consuming having to do the record keeping manually. These are important records, however, and without them, your invoices would only be guesses instead of facts from the actual job. This is why fleet businesses now rely more on GPS tracking. It helps simplify their record keeping tasks and invoice calculations.

Because the GPS fleet tracking system provides statistics to you automatically, the reports you get are more accurate. These detailed reports will assist you in figuring out how much each customer invoice should be. Billing becomes almost effortless since the statistics are recorded automatically. You don’t have to fuss with cross checking, solving math problems, or rewriting invoices. Read the rest of this entry »

Congress attempts to put a stop to unlawful usage of drones by tracking them with GPS tracking devices.

Drones encompass how far modern technology has come, but it also comes at a price. Drones are being used over sensitive and confidential areas where they should not be allowed. Due to this, Congress is hoping to track them so anyone using them for unlawful purposes can be tracked as well.

The intent to track drones comes shortly after drones have been found to be flying over the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora and other highly sensitive areas. The proposed law is being introduced by U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer.

If the law passes, all manufacturers of drones would be required to put geo-fencing technology in all drones. This would limit the locations that the drones would be able to go, stopping them from flying through restricted areas. It would include GPS trackers, firmware and built-in software.

Injured bald eagle found in Virginia is being tracked with GPS during rehabilitation.

Earlier this summer at the Westlake Golf Course, a young bald eagle was found extremely sick and malnourished. She was immediately taken to the Wildlife center of Virginia where caretakers began taking care of her.

She is now looking much healthier and is starting to fly on her own; something she was unable to do before. Researchers at the wildlife center feel confident that she will make a full recovery. She will also be returned to Smith Mountain Lake, according to Amanda Nicholson, the wildlife center’s director of outreach.

This rehabilitated bald eagle is now being tracked with a GPS tracking device in order to monitor her movements, behavior, and flight patterns when she is finally released. Read the rest of this entry »

Those who work in emergency services know better than anyone the huge role ambulance response times can play in a life or death situation. When someone is in danger, when their life is on the line, every minute matters when it comes to the response of medical teams.

From the time a call is placed to 911, the first response medical team is on the clock. Finding the fastest route and arriving on the scene as quickly as possible could make all the difference in whether a patient lives or dies.

Because of this, more cities are relying on GPS fleet tracking technology as a means of cutting ambulance response times in emergency situations. Advancements in technology are believed to be the key in improving these response times and improving the outcomes of emergency situations.

Jersey City, for instance, already has an average six minute ambulance response time, one of the fastest in the country. Still, they believe the use of gps tracking technology will play a role in cutting that time in half, and saving more lives as a result. Read the rest of this entry »
