Before knowing how to track a car with a tracker we need to understand how the tracking system works.
Multiple GPS satellites are orbiting the earth that are emitting signals, the GPS receiver inside the trackers will pick up these signals and calculate their precise location through a process called trilateration. To make sure the data is accurate trackers at least take signals from four satellites.
This location data along with other information like speed and direction, to a central server using cellular networks.
The central server if powerful like PAJ-GPS then processes the data received from the tracker and performs additional calculations, such as determining if the vehicle has entered or left certain predefined areas (geofencing).
This processed data is made available to the user through a web interface or mobile app like a finder portal.
The whole process happens continuously, with the frequency of updates depending on the tracker’s settings and capabilities. let’s now look at how to track a car with tracker.
