			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>GPS vehicle tracking is one of the fastest growing new markets and this is because there is a huge demand from both big and small companies that manage fleets. This includes GPS equipped fleet vehicles, delivery trucks, public transportation systems as well as other courier services which use GPS receivers to monitor their locations, this helps to reduce wasted time, improving overall efficiencies and also aiding in Mobile Asset recovery.</p>
<p>GPS vehicle tracking is also now popular with employers who se it to track their mobile workforce.  They will use a vehicle tracking device to monitor where their company vehicles are in real time, this is now a proven business tool that provides the employer piece of mind as they can tell where their vehicles and employees are at any given time. the GPS tracking device is an electronic device that uses Global Positioning system to find the accurate location of a vehicle, this works by sending signals between Satellites in space and the actual device.  The technology was originally used only by the military but is now used by the public.</p>
<p>GPS vehicle tracking can also help businesses with fleet vehicles to survive and thrive in a competitive market place through the following ways. This includes saving on costs of communication, reducing overtime hours, increasing billable hours, improving maintenance schedules, improving customer service levels as well as efficiency.</p>
<p>Employees of companies that employ might not appreciate the Big Brother aspects of the GPS vehicle trackers but we can’t deny the fact that this provides the employers with a way to improve efficiency of the employees and depending on the way you look at it can help with the safety of employees as well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you have a dog or cat that is an escape artist with cross-country travel on its mind, you might want to consider a GPS pet&#8211;tracking device. The same technology that enables rangers to follow tagged animals will allow an owner track straying or lost pets. You can choose either a collar design or a backpack type that works with a harness.</p>
<p>Before you rush out to buy a GPS pet&#8211;tracking device you need to consider a few things. Firstly, in addition to the system having a GPS receiver, a transmitter is required so the animal&#8217;s location can be reported. This usually means a service provider is needed.<span id="more-371"></span></p>
<p>Some pet&#8211;tracker systems are used with GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) that uses your GSM mobile phone and a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card for tracking. Note the SIM card provider needs to have a service in the area where you&#8217;ll be using the device.</p>
<p>There are various ways of accessing the information that your GPS receives. These include via home phone, Internet, and software installed on your computer. Phone access is not recommended and installed software limits your access to information. Internet access to your GPS data is the recommended way to go. You just log on, enter your password and your pet is located.</p>
<p>Pet finding software allows you to define your pet&#8217;s boundaries and upload them to your computer. If your pet goes beyond its boundaries then an alarm will sound and you can quickly locate where the animal has gone. If you are traveling with your pet beyond its boundaries you can disable the alarm, or if you are visiting another area you can upload new boundaries. Most systems allow you have more than one area entered.</p>
<p>All GPS units vary in sophistication as does the pet&#8211;tracking GPS. You can choose a unit that gives location and nothing else, or you can purchase a device that will give you location and the information of how to get there, including reference points along the way. As in any product, what you spend will define the abilities of your system. If your animal is a water lover make sure that the unit is waterproof.</p>
<p>There is a difference between dog tracker collars and GPS pet&#8211;tracking devices. The former are usually limited in range to about half a mile and are ineffective if your animal has been stolen and removed from the area. Beacon devices can only be seen within the range of the light.</p>
<p>A GPS Pet-tracking device that is not being worn is useless. If you invest the money, make sure that your pet wears his/hers all the time. Yes, animal snatchers will sometimes remove collars, but a surprising number don&#8217;t think about doing so. Combined with micro chipping and registration, pet&#8211;tracking GPS devices will go a long way to ensure that your lost pet will be located.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Global positioning system (GPS) technology first appeared in the 1980s. At that time, however, it was mostly used by the military. Next, it became widely available as GPS car tracking. Now, GPS devices can be very tiny, and they are used for a variety of purposes from going on treasure hunts to tracking teenagers. However, GPS car tracking remains one of the most popular and widespread uses of GPS technology.</p>
<p>One of the reasons GPS car tracking is so popular is for its navigation benefits. A car-tracking device is most often used, not to actually track the car by someone other than the person driving the car, but to help the driver navigate. An on board computer helps to contact a satellite that in turn finds the information on the vehicles location and then communicates that information to the cars computer. After the information has been received, it is displayed on a navigation screen. Often it is displayed in map form for a more effective visual representation of where the car is.<span id="more-364"></span></p>
<p>GPS car tracking is very useful when navigating a new place. It is especially helpful on vacations. Even if someone has never before visited a locale, he or she can figure out where to go using the GPS navigation in the car. Such a tool is very efficient in mapping the best route to sightseeing attractions. It is also very useful in finding the way back to the hotel.</p>
<p>Tourists are not the only people that make use of GPS car tracking systems, however. Many commuters use such devices in the morning to find the best way to work. Some systems are equipped to find out traffic conditions and then map out alternative routes. This can save the commuter a lot of frustration and time sitting in traffic. These systems make for more tolerable morning and evening drives.</p>
<p>So, while it can be used to effectively apprehend auto thieves and recover stolen vehicles, it also has the ability to help its own navigate through the parts of life that involve driving from one place to the other with the help of GPS car tracking.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anyone that enjoys the great outdoors has probably heard of GPS devices. They can come in handy when you are hiking, boating, biking, or doing just about anything else in the great outdoors. Twenty years ago, you had to rely on a compass the position of the sun and stars and your own common sense. Not anymore! Now you can have a handy little device that can pinpoint your exact location at any given time of day.</p>
<p>If you are in the market for a GPS device, it is important that you understand how it works. Since the GPS devices rely on air signals, you must have a GPS receiver and a clear view of the sky for them to work. When your device is turned on it is actually linking up with 27 orbital satellites in place around the planet. Four of the nearest satellites are located and the distance from them to you is calculated via the hand held device. The process is called trilateration. Based on that, the GPS device can determine where you are on the planet. Pretty neat huh?<span id="more-360"></span></p>
<p>When you look at the different types of GPS devices out there, you may wonder which one is right for you. Prices can range from $100- 5000 dollars, so it is important to do your homework. Find out what features each device has, and determine whether you need them or not. The following is a list of tips to get you started when you are shopping.</p>
<p>- Research the name brand. Though GPS technology is fairly new, the manufacturer should have a long track record of creating quality electronics.</p>
<p>- Dont buy the cheapest or the most expensive GPS device out there. The cheapest may not meet your expectations and the most expensive one probably has too much extra stuff you will never use.</p>
<p>- Look for a large display, lighted if you are going to be traveling at night.</p>
<p>- If you plan on traveling by foot look for a model that is lightweight, and water resistant.</p>
<p>Once you decide on a model that you are interested in, head over to your local sports supply store. Get prices on the model above and below it for a good range. You can also try to look at auction sites like Ebay.com to find a good deal. If you are lucky enough to find one that is used, make sure to test it out first to make sure that it works properly.</p>
<p>Deciding to buy a GPS system is a personal one, so make sure that you understand the ins and outs of the technology. If you do a variety of different activities a good basic, waterproof model will do the trick. If you have friends or family members that own a GPS system, ask them if they are happy with their purchase. That way you can get an honest opinion on the different brands out there. An online opinion site like epinions.com is also a great place for honest answers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A growing concern among many people in the world is the quality of health and physical training. As it gets easier to eat more and exercise less, it has become vital that individuals have access to a variety of tools to make training as systematic and easy as possible. Due to this, investing in a GPS running watch can make a large difference to runners and joggers, as well as to those who need a physical training program to recover from surgery or disease.</p>
<p>Before you purchase your own GPS running watch, you need to make certain that you understand how they work and how they can help you. In order to do this, you should know about the functions of the basic GPS wrist watch. In the most basic form, a runners GPS watch is nothing more than a stop watch and a hand held unit mixed into one. More advance systems possess functions such as heart rate monitor, performance indicators, distance meters and much more. This variance between the base models and the more advanced units allows you to purchase the exact type of unit that you need in order to improve the quality of your health and lifestyle.<span id="more-356"></span></p>
<p>Select the Right Watch for You<br />
If you are a beginning runner, or someone just beginning physical training, you will want to investigate units such as the Garmin Forerunner 101. This unit is one of the more basic ones available, not only having an affordable price tag, but enough features where a beginning runner can adapt to the tool while receiving many of the benefits. The Timex Navman II is also a beginners watch, sporting similar functions to the Forerunner 101.</p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-633 alignleft" title="forerunner" src="http://www.bluetoothgpstips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/forerunner-300x300.jpg" alt="forerunner" width="300" height="300" /></p>
<p>For intermediate to advance users, the Garmin Forerunner 201 has many features that the 101 lacks. Most notably, the 201 allows routes to be determined into the device, allowing long distance runners to expand their running areas safely. By providing all of the heart rate sensors, virtual running partner as well as distance and speed calculators, the device has everything the professional runner, jogger or triathlete needs in order to get into the best shape possible. With the ability to review daily or weekly histories for a period of two years, the progress of the owner of the watch can be accurately followed. This is highly important, especially for those who need to keep a constant eye on health matters.</p>
<p>For those who need a GPS running watch to improve health due to disease, illness or surgery, the features of the advanced systems could never be more important. As recovering from any health issue can be difficult, having the ability to chart progress and set reachable goals is important for being successful in building physical fitness.</p>
<p>Training Techniques<br />
When you purchase a GPS running watch, there are several different methods that you can use to raise your level of endurance and speed and time. As there are many watches available, you will want to select the one that has all of the features required to make use of the method safely.</p>
<p>The first method method involves setting a daily goal based on distance. If you desire to be a long distance runner, this method would be good for you. Each day, you will want to set a minimum distance to run. If you eventually desire to run 20 miles in one day, you would start running one mile a day for a set period of time. Many use a week or two, so they can adjust to running. Then, after that initial period of time, another mile would be added. As you grow more capable of running the mile, the number of miles you add after each time frame may vary. Once you have reached the distance you want, you would begin training yourself using the second method so that you can pace while being able to reach the distance that you desire.</p>
<p>The first method requires that the GPS running watch has full distance based features, as well as position tracking capabilities. As long distance running usually involves leaving your neighborhood or running through parks and other natural areas, you will want to be able to find your way back to civilization if you make an incorrect turn.</p>
<p>The second method runners use to improve their physical fitness is to try to beat a pace. Instead of a specific distance in a day, the runner will try to run a certain speed every day, gradually lengthening the distance and lowering the time it takes to get there. This method is suitable for short distance runners, as well as cross country runners who need to work on their speed rather than their distance.</p>
<p>The second method requires a good speed/timing watch as well as pacing features. Garmin&#8217;s virtual runner companion is perfect for this style of training, as the virtual runner will help make certain that you stay on pace.</p>
<p>The third method is for those who need a slower start. Instead of running distance or beating a pace, joggers using this method will jog for a certain period of time per day while keeping careful track of their heart rate. This method is the slowest of the most popular methods, but is by far the safest for those with known health issues. An important part of physical training is to exert yourself without injury. By tracking heart rates and limiting the amount of time that you are jogging, you can slowly build up muscle tone and endurance without stressing your body. Jogging five to ten minutes a day while maintaining specific heart rates is suggested, while slowly adding more minutes as your body adapts to being able to handle the stresses of running.</p>
<p>The third method requires that the GPS unit has a heart rate monitor, pacing functions and distance calculators. This combination is important for following the progress of this type of runner. The mother health oriented features available in a watch, the more effective it will be when this method of training is used.</p>
<p>When you purchase your GPS running watch, you will want to purchase from one of the primary GPS and watch making manufacturers. Garmin, Timex, Magellan and Casio all have watches that are suitable for use with one of the three above methods.</p>
<p>If you are serious about starting an intensive training program, you will want to contact a professional trainer. The methods suggested in this article should be used carefully, and only within the limits of your ability. The information provided by the GPS runner watch should never take the place of medical exams and check ups given by professional doctors.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>GPS Tracking System as an Anti-Theft Device</p>
<p>What happens when your car is stolen? Likely it is gone for good. Even if it is eventually located, it is usually no longer in driving condition. But what if there was no need for a lengthy and uncertain search for your stolen car? With a GPS tracking system, you can exactly where your car is at all times. These systems are known as “Global Positioning Systems” and they can provide a visual representation of where your vehicle is at any given time. The important thing to do with the GPS tracking system is make sure you have it properly installed in your car. And once that is taken care of, you can find your car no matter where it goes.<span id="more-352"></span></p>
<p>A GPS tracking system in a car consists of very few components, and it is very easy to install. A GPS receiver is needed, as this is what connects the vehicle to the satellite (and then the satellite relays the information to your location). Additionally, it is necessary to have to antennae: a GPS antenna that attaches to the underside of the car’s bumper cover, and a cellular antenna fastened to the car’s frame. You can directly power these items by hooking into the car’s power, or you can make use of a replaceable battery pack.</p>
<p>The only other things one needs for a GPS tracking system for the car is the proper software and some sort of device for receiving the information. This is most often a computer or laptop. It is even possible to receive the information on your car’s whereabouts on a pocket PC. A map appears, and your vehicle is represented on the map in a readable format. It is also possible to get an address of the car’s location. This makes tracking a stolen car rather easy, and makes it possible that the likelihood that you recover your car increases.</p>
<p>Many people are using a GPS tracking system to better protect their cars. Additionally, there are even companies that use this technology to offer services to their customers. OnStar is one of the main companies that make use of GPS tracking system technology on behalf of customers. But you can have that ability yourself if you choose the added vehicle protection of a GPS vehicle device.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">GPS: How Does It Work?</p>
<p>The Global Positioning System is a satellite-based navigation system put into place by the U.S. Department of Defense and is a network made up of 24 satellites in orbit around the earth. The satellites orbit the earth at about 12,000 miles, are solar powered, they transmit a signal of only 50 watts, and travel at speeds of about 7000 miles per hour. The GPS system was originally intended for military use only, but during the 1980s the government decided to allow civilian use. The satellites make a complete orbit around the earth every 24 hours, and are spaced equal distances from each other.</p>
<p>Now that we have covered most of the equipment information, let&#8217;s talk about what a GPS can do, and why we have such technology. The GPS system allows for satellite tracking of just about anything to which you can attach a tracker. The GPS system is accurate to within about 15 meters from anywhere on earth. This is some amazing technology, yet it is still relatively new to the average consumer.<span id="more-102"></span></p>
<p>The trick in the operation of this system is the tracking of the signal, with formulas thrown in to account for the delay in the transmission of the signal, and atmospheric changes. Since there are other satellites available to provide a sort of numbers game for the GPS, a pretty definite location can be determined using the GPS.</p>
<p>What other pieces of information can be gleaned from the use of the GPS? Other pieces of information like speed, bearing, track, trip distance, distance to destination, sunrise and sunset. That&#8217;s a pretty amazing piece of work, how did this GPS come to be in existence?</p>
<p>The Department of Defense originally commissioned the work for a military purpose only. But during the 1980s it was decided that the consumer and commercial industry would benefit greatly, and there was little or no security issues for the military. The military and civilians alike use two low frequency channels for signal communication. The civilian GPS transmits on L1 at a frequency of 1575 MHz. Most of the signal travel by sight, but will not transmit through solid buildings or structures.</p>
<p>In order to relate this to something the average consumer will understand and appreciate, OnStar, the communication system that now comes in many of the automobiles we buy, utilizes technology like this in order to determine your location in emergency situations. We don&#8217;t often stop to think about the GPS system and the benefits provided to us, until our car won&#8217;t start and we push the OnStar button&#8230; and this nice voice says, &#8220;This is OnStar, how can we help you?&#8221;<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dedicated portable GPs navigation systems in cars are now very popular,  What could be better than being able to get to wherever you want to without having to stop and ask for directions.</p>
<p>Nevertheless, a lot of people overlook a convenient an easy way of navigation which is using your mobile phones for GPS Navigation. You might think because of the small screens on mobile phonbes, it wouldn&#8217;t be practical, but from experience that is farther from the truth. There are quite a few advantages choosing a a mobile phone over a dedicated portable gps system for navigation. The main being convenience, Since mobile phones are usually compact and small, it makes it much easier then having a bulky dedicated system.<span id="more-100"></span></p>
<p>Another overlooked advantage is security, Since dedicated portable navigation sytems come with a distinct windscreen car mount.  There have been cases where cars have been broken into because thieves saw the windscreen mount on the windscreen and the owner park the vehicle, coming out with nothing and then assumed the unit will be in the car.</p>
<p>With the mobile phones, all you need is a compatible phone loaded with the navigation software and a bluetooth gps receiver.  One thing i do sometimes is to also use a bluetooth headset and have the voice prompts from the phone through the headset. You just have to make sure you get the right phone by checking which mobile phones are supported by your choice of  navigation software. When you receive an incoming call the software pauses and allows the call to come through and resumes when the conversation is ended.So if you have a correct phone, it might make more sense opting for a navigation software and <a href="http:\\www.bluetoothgpstips.com">bluetooth GPS receiver</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few people might be wondering which to choose, a Bluetooth gps receiver or a compact flash gps receiver.   I have used both so I am writing from experience. There seem to be quite a few advantages of a Bluetooth gps receiver over a cf gps receiver.</p>
<p>The main advantage would be versatility, you can use a Bluetooth gps receiver with a Bluetooth pda as well as a compatible bluetooth mobile phone whereas with a cf gps receiver you are limited to only a compatible pda as mobile phones usually don&#8217;t have a cf slot.</p>
<p>Another advantage is with regards to battery life, some bluetooth gps receivers have exceptional battery life lasting up to 26 hours, some mobile phones also have a long life, although a pda won&#8217;t last anywhere near that, when using a cf gps receiver the pda battery is usually depleted faster as the it has to also power the cf receiver since the cf receiver can&#8217;t work on its own.<span id="more-93"></span></p>
<p>The third consideration is convenience, one can find some new gps receivers that are extremely small, the holux gpslim 236 comes to mind, because of their size and sensitivity you can stick them in your pocket and still get a very good signal so you don&#8217;t have anything sticking out of the pda as is the case with a cf gps receiver.</p>
<p>Another thing to consider is that a lot of newer pdas seem to be loosing the compact flash interface, a good example is the fujitsu siemens loox 720, it has being rumoured that the loox 720 replacement won&#8217;t be including a cf interface. My conclusion would be it seems that manufacturers don&#8217;t consider the cf interface that important to include in newer pdas, kind of like being phased out so it might not be a good idea to invest in cf devices.</p>
<p>My final argument would be that when it comes to using a gps receiver for driving, it is easier to position a bluetooth gps receiver in a convenient position where it can receive a better signal than with a cf gps receiver because since the cf gps receiver is fixed to the pda, you are limited by how much you can move the pda around and still have a good view of the pda screen. Based on all these facts I would consider a bluetooth gps receiver a better choice to a cf gps receiver.</p>
