GPS tracking has only been made available to the public, in the form of commercial and personal applications, in the last few years even though it has been in use by the Department of Defense for almost twenty to thirty years now.

Given the accuracy of the GPS tracking system that is in place for commercial purposes, you can imagine how accurate the classified section of the GPS system that the Department of Defense still keeps under its wraps.

The benefits of the proverbial GPS tracking device that you can use for almost anything these days are only understood once you begin to profit from it. Well, the transportation companies that often get discounts when it comes to premiums can tell you how beneficial this system is for both transportation companies as well as insurance companies.

Take for example, the situation of fleet tracking systems where several vehicles have to be monitored on a daily basis whether as regards their routes and the time covered to take that route as well.

In being able to track the movements of vehicles, you can ensure that productivity is maximum, thus reducing overtime since you can plan routes in such a way that efficiency is maintained.

All in all, no matter how you look at it, the overall results of using GPS can be beneficial to anyone or any organization that uses it on a daily basis.
