A vehicle tracking system combines the installation of an electronic device in a vehicle, or fleet of vehicles, with purpose-designed
computer software to enable the owner or a third party to track the vehicle's location, collecting data in the process. Modern vehicle
tracking systems use GPS technology for locating the vehicle . Vehicle information can be viewed on electronic maps via the Internet
or specialized software. Urban public transit authorities are an increasingly common user of vehicle tracking systems, particularly in
large cities.
Active versus passive tracking
Several types of Vehicle Tracking devices exist. Typically they are classified as "Passive" and "Active". "Passive" devices store GPS
location, speed, heading and sometimes a trigger event such as key on/off, door open/closed. Once the vehicle returns to a predetermined
point, the device is removed and the data downloaded to a computer for evaluation. Passive systems include auto download type that transfer
data via wireless download. "Active" devices also collect the same information but usually transmit the data in real-time via cellular or
satellite networks to a computer or data center for evaluation
