With the entire buzz around the GPS tracking device these days, one can hardly imagine that it was only a few years ago that the US military used it as their primary navigation system. With 24 of its satellites currently orbiting the earth, one can obtain the data of the exact time and location that is calculated by three to four satellites at a time. However, with the military opening this system to the public, this has opened up opportunities for personal and commercial use.

When it comes to the former, some of these devices (very similar to the method Lojack uses but better in some ways) are so easy to install, and most customers install and use it themselves. All one has to do is hook up a ground and power wire, mount the GPS antenna and use the system immediately.

And while the debate rages on as to whether LoJack is better than GPS and vice-versa, perhaps the answer to that question broadly lies in the range of use of LoJack as opposed to GPS, of which the latter, has far more features that are useful to a broader audience, both for personal and commercial use.

Whether you need to keep track of your vehicle from being stolen and so on and so forth or even a fleet of vehicles that you manage as part of the transportation services that you own, satellite tracking enables one to find anything anywhere that moves, provided one has installed one of these devices in the vehicle.
