A prominent part of many vehicle telematics solutions is Vehicle Tracking.

Typical vehicle tracking systems are comprised of two core parts; vehicle tracking hardware (or vehicle tracking device) and vehicle tracking software. The tracking device is hardwire installed in the vehicle, wired to the ignition switch, battery and antennae. The tracking hardware transmits it’s location ( often by GPRS) updates at a regular timed interval or after an event trigger, e.g. ignition on / off. The location data is made available for viewing more often than not, via a website, accessed over the internet, where vehicle and fleet activity can be viewed live or historically using digital maps and reports.
