The helpless feeling of a parent who has lost track of their child in a crowd? A worried spouse who fears the worst every time their partner is late coming home? An employer who just wants to know if the people they are paying to do a job are actually getting the work done? Whatever your needs are, there is a personal GPS tracker designed specifically to fit them.

What is GPS personal tracking?

GPS personal tracking is the ability for any person to locate another person, object, or thing. The use of a device that receives information from the GPS satellite network in space. All real-time personal GPS tracking systems include some sort of transmitter that sends this data back to the end user. The most popular mode of transmitting the data back is using GPRS through a mobile data network provider like Telstra or Optus. For this reason, there are monthly subscription fees that the end user is responsible for, just like your mobile phone.

Some devices, like the Spot Personal Satellite Locator, transmit their information back up to a satellite, which receives the information and relays it back down to earth.

Whether you are concerned about the well-being of your small children or would like to monitor your elderly parents to offer additional layers of security for your loved ones or family members, a personal alarm GPS tracking system has many benefits in today's world.
