Recovering Stolen Assets With GPS

I was reading this article earlier today about how a stolen ambulance was recovered using the vehicle’s GPS transponder. Obviously, this is just one more benefit to tracking your vehicle fleet with GPS-based solutions. It may even be possible that insurance companies will factor the presence of GPS tracking systems into your company’s insurance policy, which could result in discounts to damage coverage since vehicles should be easier to recover if lost or stolen. Likewise, if a vehicle is lost or stolen it can be recovered in less time and with less impact to your fleet capacity. Eventually we will see more and more equipment tracked in real time with GPS.
