If chief security officers ever considered global positioning system (GPS) vehicle tracking, chances are these executives either thought of, or heard, some of these common objections. They're all based on reasonable assumptions -- but, the actual experience users have had with this technology tells a much different, and more encouraging, story. Most fleet tracking systems are comprised of the same basic components: a GPS receiver installed within each vehicle, and some kind of software operating on PC's that organizes and displays the information gathered. The reality is that most users of GPS tracking services don't realize the full impact the information can have upon their organization until after they start using the system on a regular basis. GPS technology itself has been effectively used for many decades. Security and fleet management needs to know where they are now, where they've been and what they're doing.
