An Introduction into GPS
The term widely known as GPS is a short representation of the full name ‘Global Positioning System’. They are an simple but intelligent device as they work by communicating with the satellites in space orbiting the earth via a microwave frequencies receiver. Using and monitoring this information, the gps will be able to receive important data including the latitude and longitude of your current location, in any area at any time on Earth. The GPS network in space consists of over 20 satellite stations all operating all hours of the day. Each on of the satellites transmits radio signals, which is picked up and processed by a gps tracking system, this enables the device to calculate a moving objects (I.e car or person) direction, speed and exact location within 5 metres. Here is another interesting fact for you, intellectually advanced human minds have made sure that the whole of earth’s surface can be contacted via GPS, they accomplish this by arranging four satellites in each of six orbital planes in space.

Locating Your Cars OBD2 is Easy
Usually the OBD2 Port is located near your cars fuse box under the dash (light fuses etc..) The best place to start looking is here, you may need to open a small hatch to find the fuses. If the OBD2 is not here, simply have a look near the bonnet hatch or under the steering wheel. There is a FREE database of DLC locations available form ODC Clearing House. If in doubt, check with your vehicle manufacture or handbook. [ search ]

Connector (DLC)
The OBD II port’s physical connector is called the Data Link Connector (DLC). It is a 16-pin plug thats usually located under the dashboard near the steering wheel. (The standard specifies that the connector must be within three feet of the driver.)When searching for your DLC, remember that a three foot sphere around the driver is pretty large, and the port may actually be on the passengers side.

What is a OBD 2 DLC Port and have I got one?
Chances are your car does have one! The OBD 2 (On-Board Diagnostic systems) can be found in most cars as well as light trucks on the road today. During the 1970s and early 1980s car manufacturers started using electronic means to command engine functions and diagnose engine problems. This was primarily to meet EPA emission standards. Through the years on-board diagnostic systems have become more sophisticated. OBD-II, a new standard introduced in the mid-90s, provides almost complete engine control and also monitors parts of the chassis, body and accessory devices, as well as the diagnostic control network of the car.

GPS uses in Fleet Operators and in Transit Agencies
Fleet Operators navigate certain functions & information such as driver routing, on board information and security, and dispatch times & arrival times. As gps tracking is so versatile it is also now commonly used by transportation companies (transit agencies) for a variant range of purposes, including monitoring schedule arrivals & dispatch times of buses in service, triggering changes of transportation vehicles as well as changing the destination sign you see on buses that represent the location they are heading in, some tracking fleet systems are so smart they can go as far as being able to trigger pre-recorded announcements for passengers when the desired destination has been reached. Studies show that transportation agencies are using GPS tracking all over the world more and more.
The public transportation association of America has predetermined that at the early stages of the year 2009, nearly 50% of all transit buses in the US are already using a GPS based vehicle tracking system specifically targeted at automated stop announcements. This can refer to external announcements (triggered by the opening of the bus’s door) at a bus stop, announcing the vehicle’s route number and destination, primarily for the benefit of people who are blind also known as visually impaired suffered customers, or to internal announcements ( targeted at customers (passengers) already on board the transit service) identifying the next stop, as the bus approaches a stop, or both. Aside from working in all of these different ways, the GPS fleet tracking devices works as a computer hard drive storing information throughout the day. Data collected as a transit vehicle follows its chosen specialised route is often consistently imported into a computer program which works by comparing the vehicle’s actual location and time with its schedule, because of the ability to now the exact location at a specific time, it brings the fact that information regarding the scheduled route is freely available to the driver, updating often. This will tell the bus driver how late he is or how early he is at any time in the day 24/7.
In more modern transportation facilities using fleet gps tracking for transportation, customers on board the transportation line will be able to vie real time information showing how long it will be till there next destination, and the waiting time until arrival of the next bus or car at any given deportation zone, this data is calculation by basing its algorithms around the next vehicles actual progress at the time, the bus could break down on the way which would send a message to the announcements informing customers there will be an unexpected delay.
Transit systems providing this kind of data assign a unique number to each stop location to correspond with internal computers running on the gps tracking systems CPU, and waiting passengers can obtain information by entering the stop number into an automated telephone system or an application on the transit system’s website. In rare cases, transit companies will provide a ‘virtual’ map on their company web page, with images or icon depicting the current locations of buses in service at present on each route, for customers’ information, while others provide such information only to dispatchers or other employees.
