These are some screen-shots from the HTML5 App that the techs from the University of Missouris build to use with the Raveon M7-GX GPS transponder.
Guest Blog posted by Corbin Campbell, Electronics Support Services Missouri State University Just a little history, our Assistant Director of Public Safety had a project for me. Missouri State University had the ability to GPS track the shuttle bus fleet for the students, faculty, staff, and public safety. This was done using a wireless carrier and through a smartphone […]
The first thing to know about GPS antenna placement is that all GPS receivers calculate the position of the GPS antenna itself, rather than the receiver. In many cases, such as standard vehicles, this is not an issue. However, on larger items such as ships, barges, or large aircraft, this may be an important issue [...]
If you are in the Houston, Texas area visit our booth (#349) at the ENTELEC Conference & Expo between April 9th and 11th. It is the largest event in the world with a specific focus on communications, information technology, automation, SCADA and control technologies for the petroleum, pipeline, natural gas, electric utility and the entire [...]
The ATLAS PT should be the location device of choice for emergency responders that require situational awareness and cannot rely on cellular coverage or Internet access to track team members at all times. Since all Raveon GPS radios track all other ATLAS or M7 devices in their range without needing to connect to a base [...]
Municipalities around the globe started to realize that tracking solutions based on licensed radio frequencies make for a reliable and cost effective way to monitor city vehicles and personnel. Unlike cellular solutions radio-based GPS transmission does not burden users with monthly bandwidth costs and cities can often utilize existing infrastructure and licences. In addition, GPS [...]
Come join us at the Firehouse World Conference at the San Diego Convention Center, February 17-21st 2013. We will feature our ATLAS PT tracker for emergency responders (also known as a ‘man-down radio’ and mobile command center for fire fighters. We will be at booth #2046.

Most GPS vehicle tracking systems use a “cellular” wireless telephone carrier system to collect position information from the fleet in the field and transport that information back to headquarters. You may see acronyms such as GSM or GPRS describing the system. The RavTrack system uses a very different approach, that of local user based radio. These [...]
Accuracy depends on a variety of conditions coming together at a particular location and time, including distortion of GPS signals as they travel through the ionosphere and errors in the position (ephemeris data) transmitted by GPS satellites. For most end users, accuracy is heavily influenced by having usable signals from more than 3 GPS satellites. Positions [...]
