GNSS & GPS: The revolution in fleet tracking

GNSS & GPS: More than just location tracking
When it comes to location or fleet tracking, many people immediately think of GPS. But the technology behind it goes far beyond the GPS network and extends to GNSS. GPS is just one of many navigation systems under the umbrella of GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems).

What is GNSS and how does it work?
GNSS is the overarching system that comprises various satellites such as GPS, Galileo and BeiDou. These satellites collect position, navigation and time (PNT) information and transmit it to GNSS receivers. These receivers analyze the data and provide precise information on location, speed and time.

The advantages of GPS fleet tracking
GPS, as part of GNSS, is the most widely used system for location tracking. It plays a crucial role in scenarios that require virtual monitoring and tracking of fleets, assets or other mobile objects.

GNSS & GPS in the IoT
The GNSS-based market is constantly growing and is used in many industries such as transportation, agriculture, security and shipping. Many Teltonika Networks devices support GNSS and offer precise real-time tracking capabilities.

Transportation and GNSS
The transportation sector can benefit considerably from GNSS. Examples include the monitoring of vehicle locations or the tracking of buses in rural areas.

GNSS in Smart Cities
In collaboration with companies such as PROBOTEK, Teltonika Networks shows how GNSS can be used in smart city solutions, from drone surveillance to irrigation system automation.

Improved GNSS precision with NTRIP
Some Teltonika Networks devices support the NTRIP protocol, which improves the positioning accuracy of GNSS data. This is particularly useful in industries that require highly accurate location data, such as agriculture.

Conclusion
Fleet tracking with GNSS technology can improve performance and provide comprehensive location data analysis. With companies like Teltonika Networks at the forefront of this revolution, organizations can benefit from accurate and reliable location data.
