by Prinkal Middha Quicken Support

When we talk about GPS (Global Positioning System), we mean that it's a system showing us the exact position of a person or a thing by using signals from satellites.Below, we have mentioned types of devices you can opt for. These are as follows:

1. GPS Trackers:

Among different GPS devices, it is highly preferred by people. GPS tracker (also called as GPS data pusher) like Trackimo can be utilized to monitor and track the location of an object or person. With such kind of device attached to vehicles, you are able to send driving information like speed, sudden acceleration, and impact. It can be done via text, in-app notifications, or e-mail. Equipped with the number of features, the device is popularly used by vehicle owners to prevent car theft.It would not wrong if I say that people from all walks of life make use of these tracking devices. In fact, GPS trackers is a common name among families who want to monitor their children, teenagers, and even elderly members (who are prone to wandering).

2. GPS Location Finder:

Well, this device enables users to find their “home base”. For those who are into hiking, it proves to be a useful device. Through this, the lost campers are directed back to the campsite by providing them accurate coordinates. Also, the device help employees who are constantly on the road, birdwatchers, tourists to get their way back easily.

3. GPS Logger:

Guys, it works in the same way as GPS tracker. This particular device can track and record GPS locations of object it is attached to. Please note that it doesn't provide the real-time location. There is a need to remove the device from an object you are tracking and download the reports collected via PC. Later on, you can remove the data from its internal memory.

You can get the device by paying the low cost as compared to GPS devices. For this, you needn't pay monthly GPS service fee. Mostly, photographers go for this device to determine the time and location a certain picture was taken.

4. GPS Photo Tagger:

This makes use of a process known as 'Geo-tagging'. Through this process, geographical identification to photographs, Web sites, QR codes, or videos is added. The data generally comprises of longitude and latitude coordinates and also be accompanied with altitude, distance, place-names.Photographers and private investigators use this to track down photo’s location and date (when it was taken). You should also know that these are often equipped with mobile phones and digital cameras.
