What is a GPS? How does it work? The Global Positioning System (GPS) tells you where you are on Earth. Itâs eleven oâclock ... do you know where your kids are? Would you like to? One way to track them would be to have a GPS receiver installed in the car! The GPS, or Global Positioning System, is one of the hottest technologies around, and no wonder. Consider these diverse uses: Minnesota scientists use GPS to study movements and feeding habits of deer.
Save. A GPS tracker is a device used to track the location of a vehicle. There are two types of trackers available to the public: a logger tracking system and a real-time tracking system. A logger tracking system remembers all the locations a vehicle has been and stores them on a hard drive. It's illegal to block or tamper with any GPS tracking device that has been placed in a vehicle for law enforcement reasons. 2  If you're not sure about a tracking device attached to your car, consult your local law enforcement. 3  GPS blockers are illegal in some areas; check your local laws before buying and using one.
