The document describes a GPS tracking system that uses GPS technology to determine the precise location of assets. It explains that a GPS tracking unit attaches to an asset and records its position at regular intervals, storing or transmitting the location data. This allows the asset's location to be viewed in real time or analyzed later on a map using tracking software. The document also provides background on GPS technology and its origins for defense purposes using satellite navigation. It describes the components used in a sample GPS tracking system including microcontrollers, GPS modules, resistors, capacitors and LCDs.

2. a) A GPS tracking unit is a device that uses the Global Positioning System to
determine the precise location of a vehicle, person, or other asset to
which it is attached and to record the position of the asset at regular
intervals.
b) The recorded location data can be stored within the tracking unit, or it
may be transmitted to a central location data base, or internet-connected
computer, using a cellular (GPRS or SMS), radio, or satellite modem
embedded in the unit.
c) This allows the asset's location to be displayed against a map backdrop
either in real time or when analysing the track later, using GPS Tracking
Software.
d) GPS tracking system is method to locate the exact location of a receiver
(tracking unit) on the earth.

3. Generally there are two types of GPS tracking systems:
1. passive tracking system
2. real-time system.
Origins:
 GPS technology was initially developed in the United States for defense
purposes.
 GPS uses satellite technology for its navigation system.
 The GPS navigation system can track a person or object fitted with GPS
equipment irrespective of which part of the globe they’re in.
 The tracking range is quite accurate with a usual error range of about
100 meters.
