What is a GPS tracker?

A GPS tracker is a device that uses satellite signals to determine a vehicle or asset’s exact location in real time. It sends this data to a connected platform or app so users can monitor routes, movement, and performance.

How does a GPS tracker work?

The tracker receives signals from GPS satellites to calculate location coordinates, then transmits that data via mobile networks to a monitoring platform like DRIVE360 for live tracking and reporting.

What types of vehicles can GPS trackers be used for?

GPS trackers can be installed in almost any vehicle, including trucks, trailers, caravans, boats, motorcycles, and heavy machinery, making them ideal for both fleet and personal use.

What are the main benefits of using a GPS tracker?

GPS trackers improve safety, optimise routes, reduce fuel costs, and enhance visibility. They also help with theft prevention, maintenance scheduling, and driver accountability.

Can GPS trackers help prevent vehicle theft?

Yes. GPS trackers send instant alerts if a vehicle moves unexpectedly or leaves a defined area (geofence), allowing for quick location and recovery.

How accurate are GPS trackers?

Modern GPS trackers, like Saphyroo’s, are highly accurate—typically within a few metres—and provide continuous real-time location updates.

How can GPS tracking improve fleet efficiency?

By analysing route data, idle times, and driver behaviour, GPS tracking helps reduce fuel use, optimise scheduling, and boost overall productivity.

How does GPS tracking integrate with DRIVE360 and VISION360?

DRIVE360 uses GPS data to power real-time tracking, route optimisation, vehicle utilisation, and fatigue management. VISION360 then combines GPS location data with AI-driven video intelligence, enabling visual verification of incidents, driver behaviour monitoring, and enhanced safety analytics.

Agricultural telematics uses GPS tracking, sensors, and real-time data to monitor farm vehicles, machinery and assets helping farmers improve efficiency, safety and productivity.

It allows farmers to protect high value equipment, reduce downtime, optimise usage and maintain full visibility across their operations.

Poor visibility of machinery, unplanned downtime, fuel misuse, theft and inefficient routing between paddocks or delivery points all contribute to lost productivity.

By monitoring real-time location, engine hours and usage patterns, farmers can schedule work efficiently, avoid overuse, and extend the lifespan of machinery.

Tools like GPS tracking, geofencing, and remote monitoring help automate workflows, prevent asset loss, track livestock, reduce wastage and support informed decisions.

These are automated notifications for example, maintenance reminders, unauthorised movement alerts, or engine health warnings to help prevent issues before they disrupt operations.

Location history, fuel usage, idle time, engine hours, route paths, geofence activity and maintenance logs all give insights into how efficiently the farm is running.

Saphyroo provides real-time tracking, route optimisation, geofencing, maintenance management and detailed reporting helping farmers run safer, more productive operations.

DRIVE360 improves driver safety, monitors work hours, provides routing for farm to delivery tasks and ensures staff operate efficiently across large properties.

By reducing equipment downtime, improving fuel efficiency, preventing theft, lowering maintenance costs and enabling better planning for harvest and delivery.
