What is the difference between car GPS locator and GPS navigation?

“GPS positioning” and ‘GPS navigation’ these two concepts are both related and different; both need to receive satellite signals, so there are satellite receiver module; GPS navigation only serves the driver, the device does not need to install other facilities, while GPS Positioning in addition to serving the driver, but also to serve the driver (vehicle) managers, the need to establish vehicles and management centers of the information channel, so there is also a need for communication channels, be sure to install a mobile phone card.

GPS positioning and GPS navigation tools difference:

GPS positioning tools: a GPS positioning terminal, a cell phone or computer (query).

GPS navigation tools: GPS navigation terminal a (generally built-in map), the terminal can be to is GPS navigator, GPS cell phone, GPS all-in-one, PDA + module, notebook + module, etc..

The difference between GPS navigation and GPS positioning

GPS navigation requires a terminal, which can be a GPS navigator, GPS cell phone, GPS all-in-one, PDA+module, laptop+module, etc. These terminals can navigate after downloading the map software. These terminals can navigate after downloading the map software, and the use is free.

GPS positioning, on the basis of the navigation terminal, increase the positioning communication module, microcomputer, programming, etc., to realize the GPS positioning communication function, the cost is equal to two times of the navigation terminal, you can send the terminal position to the designated terminal, such as the operation center. The use of the general need to pay the annual service fee.

Used on cell phones, mostly GPS navigation terminals, no need to pay any fees, even if not on the cell phone card, but also use the navigation function as usual.

The difference between GPS locator and GPS navigator: GPS locator features

Real-time positioning function: in accordance with the set time interval, so that the satellite positioning system vehicle-mounted terminal to report the location and other information, so that managers can easily view the vehicle location.

Track playback: in the data center server to save the vehicle for a period of time to travel data, location and other information, can be queried playback, available for managers to query the vehicle driving conditions.

Data statistics: vehicle mileage and working time statistics, convenient for managers to view, enterprises and institutions based on mileage statistics to reimburse personnel for fuel costs.

Cross-border alarm (electronic fence): the dispatching and monitoring center sets up some areas, when the vehicle enters or leaves the area, the location information is reported and alarmed, which is convenient for managers to manage the vehicle driving area.

Remote oil and power cuts: When necessary (such as theft), the client monitoring platform can be sent to the vehicle through the client oil and power cuts instructions, so that the vehicle can not be started, mostly used in security companies to monitor the installment vehicles.

GPS navigator function map query

You can search the location of the destination you want to go on the operation terminal.

You can record the location information of the place you often want to go and keep it, also and can share these location information with others.

Fuzzy query your attachment or a location nearby such as gas stations, hotels, cash machines and other information.

Route Planning

The GPS navigation system will automatically plan a route based on the starting point and destination you set.

Route planning allows you to set whether or not you want to go through certain waypoints.

Route planning can be set to avoid highways and other features.

Automatic Navigation

Voice Navigation - Provides the driver with advance information about intersections, navigation system status, and other driving information by voice, just like a guide who knows the way and tells you how to drive to your destination. This is one of the most important functions of navigation, allowing you to arrive at your destination safely through voice prompts without looking at the operator terminal.

On-screen navigation - On the operator terminal, a map is displayed, along with driving information such as the car's current location, driving speed, distance to destination, planned route tips, and turn-by-turn instructions at intersections.

Re-planning Route - If you do not follow the planned route or take the wrong intersection, the GPS navigation system will re-plan a new route for you to reach your destination according to your current position.
