A great way to track your fleet or other vehicles is to install a vehicle tracking device .
Gps or Gprs tracking is affordable and completely reliable.
What is GPS?
Gps is the abbreviated term for Global Positioning System. It is a network of 24 satellites that track such things as time, location, speed and heading.
Gps is free to use and it works anywhere in the world. The signal is usually week though and will only work outdoors.
What’s GPRS?
Gprs stands for General Packet Radio Service. It is a very cost effective way to send and receive data over a GSM network.
With gprs you pay for data sent and received rather than time connected, this allows real time fleet management operation at a very reasonable price.
Gprs works anywhere in the world, subject to suitable GPRS coverage and map data availability for your chosen ASP - Application service provider.
Why do I need an ASP?
The vehicle tracker sends data about location and status of a vehicle (or device) to a computer server.
An application service provider will allow you to use the date the tracker send in a user friendly format. For example you can create reports or check locations.
Past records and maps are full accessible. Allowing you to track past journeys.
You do not have to download any special software to access the data. All you need is internet access. This is perfect when you are on the go and want to check on your fleet.
JagadTrack Tracker
A highly recommended unit.
Cost effective, flexible and highly compatible.
The perfect Vehicle tracking device in my opinion.

1st ten years battery
JagadTrack has launched the world's first self contained GPS tracking system with a 10 year battery life which is specifically designed for shipping containers. The GPS/GSM device is covertly fitted inside the container, protecting it from damage and prying eyes. The system can send an alert if moved or if the container doors are opened, giving the position of the container anywhere in the world.
Another first is the JagadTrack trailer tracking system for use on road trailers and rail rolling stock, using the same long life battery technology and the option for external power, TrailerTrak can send alerts if the trailer or rail wagon / van (Box Car) is hitched, moved or idle.
To complete the hat-trick, JagadTrack are also proud to announce the launch of MiniTrak; a revolutionary miniaturised rechargeable tracking device with a battery life of up to 30 days and a permanent power option, making it ideal for concealment within consignments or equipment or other short term mobile applications.
JagadTrack is an advanced tracking system that allows you to find both real-time and historic locations of almost any asset. The web based system allows users to find the position of the JagadTrack tracking devices to within a few meters by using multiple mapping solutions via our web based tracking portal.
Although JagadTrack Systems Ltd is a new company it has a long history in GPS tracking and communication systems. JagadTrack was formed by the originators of Minorplanet Ltd who went on to become one of the principle GPS tracking companies in the World, and to this day is regarded by many as the market leader in Vehicle tracking systems with many thousands of units operating globally.
The GPS vehicle tracking industry grew rapidly in the early nineties and the JagadTrack team were indeed pioneers, being instrumental in the development of the techniques and systems from which many modern GPS tracking systems are still based.
All of our products are designed and manufactured / tested in the UK to exacting standards using state of the art production and quality control facilities. JagadTrack products are rigorously tested before leaving the factory, ensuring the highest quality and trouble free service 'out of the box'.
As a world leader in long-life battery powered GPS and GSM tracking products, we are continually developing our product base, indeed our R & D team have been developing and producing 'best of class' GPS, communication and security products for over 20 years.

Tracking shipping container
Security is something that is present in every aspect of our daily life, from locking our front door to being searched at an airport check in, and it is not always a precise science. If you build a large wall around your house you may be able to keep out the opportunist intruder, however to the professional thief you are advertising that there may be something of value behind the wall and this itself may draw unwelcome attention. If you install an intruder alarm in your home are you going to deflect an attack or make a burglar think there are valuables being protected? The situation in every case has to be assessed and the appropriate security deployed. Where asset tracking is required, it is always advisable that the tracking units are concealed to prevent them from being disabled or draw unwanted attention. It is extremely important that a container with a tracking system installed should look no different from the container that has a low value cargo such as waste paper. Security products that are overtly fitted to the container doors (or any external surface) unfortunately make it easy for criminals to identify the containers that have a valuable cargo.
Theft and Fraud from shipping containers was estimated to be in excess of $185 billion USD in 2007, and with some consignments having a value of over $20 million USD this figure is quite believable. There is also concern that terrorists have used shipping containers in the past and will no doubt use them in the future to move weapons and explosives around the globe.
JagadTrack Systems Ltd manufactures a covert container tracking system with a 10 year battery life, specifically designed for shipping containers. This system uses The Global Positioning System GPS to locate the container and then transmits the location information using the Global System for Mobile communication (GSM). Battery life of the PT-1000 has been optimised for the normal service life of a typical shipping container (10 years) and is able to send multiple position reports every day for the entire life cycle. The unit can also be fitted with a movement sensor so if the container is place on trailer or moved to another part of the port the device will wake up and give alert information and more frequent position reports. The system also has a capability to send an alert message when the container doors are opened, providing geocoded proof of delivery information to the consignee, along with the comfort of knowing that the shipment has reached its destination, and that there has been no unauthorised opening of the container doors.
The alerts can be sent by the web-based system via e-mail and Short Messaging Service (SMS) to the user's mobile phone. The user can then view the position of the container and the nature of the alert. The system allows users to find the position of the JagadTrack tracking devices to within a few meters anywhere in the world by using a multiple mapping solutions via our web-based tracking portal. The each user has unique user name and password to access the advanced tracking system; this allows you to find both real-time and historic locations of the unit.
In as little as 30 minutes, the container tacking system can be covertly fitted inside the shipping container, with the GPS and GSM antenna's fitted covertly to the outside of the container, protecting it from damage and prying eyes. If a container does not need to be permanently tracked, we have a magnetically mounted self contained container GPS tracking system, ideal for a temporary asset tracking solution. The GPS/GSM device is covertly fitted on the outside of the container in a few seconds and has a 90 day rechargeable battery, there is an anti tamper facility that will alert the user if the unit is removed. The device can be attached to the container upon dispatch and then retrieved when it reaches its destination. The same unit can then be sent back to the originator to be recharged and reattached to another consignment. The PT-030C is ideal where random containers are used by the shipping agent.
JagadTrack is working closely with a company that provides high security containers. The system is capable detecting a hole of only a few millimetre's being made in the wall or roof of the container, this advanced intrusion detection system uses the JagadTrack device to signal an alarm and position. The secure container system is capable of detecting both physical breaches and the presence of nuclear material within the container. Many leading industry experts believe nuclear material detection will become mandatory for all shipments entering a USA port.
JagadTrack is also working with a manufacture of light weight pallets to develop a secure Unit Load Device (ULD) for air cargo. This will utilise the JagadTrack range providing tracking for very high value air cargo such as diamond shipments. The airline industry's definition of high value cargo is a shipment in excess of $15 million dollars. The new ULD will not only be extremely light which is critical for air cargo, it will have a facility for authorised personnel to temporarily deactivate the tracking unit before loading the ULD into the hold of an aircraft.
Another version of the 10 year tracking product is the JagadTrack trailer tracking system for use on road trailers and rail rolling stock. This unit uses the same long life battery technology and can send an alert if the trailer or rail wagon / van (box car) is hitched or moved. All permanently fitted units report the ambient temperature inside the container or trailer and actively monitor the battery condition. An imaginary perimeter called a geo-fence can be set from 100 meters to 1km around the units via the JagadTrack web portal; this will send an alert if the unit travels outside the selected geofence. The reporting intervals can also be remotely configured from the JagadTrack web portal and an activity report can either be viewed on maps or downloaded in text form giving time, date, location, and temperature of the asset along with any alerts that were active at that time.
JagadTrack offers a complete range of battery powered GPS tracking products, from the 10 year PT-1000 to a small personal match box size product called the MiniTrack. The MiniTrack has a 30 day rechargeable battery and can be carried by lone workers or security personnel; it can even be fitted to search and rescue dogs. The JagadTrack range also included compact pallet tracking devices with a 1 to 2 year battery life and both 5 and 7 year products that are typically used for tracking a variety of non-powered and powered assets, including trailers, portable buildings and plant.
Although JagadTrack Systems Ltd is a new company it has a long history in GPS tracking and communication systems. JagadTrack was formed by Paul Burke and John Macey the originators of Minorplanet Ltd that went on to become one of the principle GPS tracking companies in the World, and to this day is regarded by many as the market leader in Vehicle tracking systems with many thousands of units operating globally.

How to plan tracking by GPS??
Plant equipment tracking is now in greater demand than ever before as theft from building sites, quarries, road works and farms is now greater than ever before. Theft of plant in 2007 was reported by the Home Office to be in excess of one million pounds per week in the UK alone. The equipment invariably finds its way to continental Europe and often onto former Eastern block countries, equipment originally from the UK has even been reported as far a field as China.
It is always advisable that the tracking units are concealed to prevent them from being disabled or they may draw unwanted attention. It is extremely important that a tracking system installed on plant equipment should have its own independent power supply, and not be reliant of the Plant equipments own power. It is also advisable that the battery of the tracking unit is not a rechargeable battery that again requires power from the plant equipment to keep the tracking unit's battery charged. The main reason for this apart from the obvious weakness of letting the tracking unit rely on the plant equipment for power, the thief can trace the unit by following the power cables that the unit uses to recharge its battery.
The most effective type of tracking unit has its own self contained battery that can power the unit for a number of years while being able to send frequent daily reports. The unit should be able to operate globally as we know stolen plant and farm equipment can be transported almost anywhere.
JagadTrack manufactures a covert plant and farm equipment tracking system with a 5 year battery life, specifically designed for plant and farm equipment. This system uses The Global Positioning System GPS to locate the plant equipment and then transmits the location information using the Global System for Mobile communication (GSM). Battery life of the PT- 500 has been optimized so it is able to send multiple position reports every day for up to 5 years. The unit can also be fitted with a movement sensor so if the plant equipment is placed on a trailer or moved off site, the device will wake up and give alert and then send more frequent position reports. The system also has a capability to send an alert message when the Equipment is moved out of its geo fence that could be set around its base or the building site it has been left.
The alerts can be sent by the web-based system via e-mail and Short Messaging Service (SMS) to the user's mobile phone. The user can then view the position of the equipment and the nature of the alert. The system allows users to find the position of the JagadTrack tracking devices to within a few meters anywhere in the world by using a multiple mapping solutions via our web-based tracking portal. The each user has unique user name and password to access the advanced tracking system; this allows you to find both real-time and historic locations of the unit.
In as little as few minutes, the PT - 500 tacking system can be covertly fitted inside the plant or farm equipment, and can be easily transferred if the equipment sold or replaced. The reporting intervals can also be remotely configured from the JagadTrack web portal and an activity report can either be viewed on maps or downloaded in text form giving time, date and location of the asset along with any alerts that were active at that time.
