Discover how GPS technology powers enterprise operations beyond navigation—enabling real-time tracking, security, and asset intelligence.
We interact with GPS every day—when we check directions, hail a ride, or track a delivery. But behind the scenes, GPS powers far more than just our phones and cars. In enterprise operations, GPS has evolved into a foundational technology for tracking, security, logistics, and automation—offering visibility that traditional tools like surveillance cameras or spreadsheets can’t provide.
At Leverege, we’ve seen firsthand how GPS can unlock game-changing operational improvements. And through solutions like AutoTrace, we’re enabling businesses to move beyond simple location tracking to real-time, insight-driven asset intelligence.
The Global Positioning System is a U.S.-owned satellite-based radio navigation system that provides location, velocity, and time information to anyone, anywhere on Earth, 24 hours a day—no subscription fee required.
Originally developed in the 1970s for military use, GPS became fully operational in 1995 and has since become a pillar of civilian life, business operations, and scientific research.
At its core, GPS answers three simple but critical questions:
The magic of GPS relies on a carefully orchestrated dance between space, physics, and math. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:
A common question is: “Why four satellites? Isn’t three enough for 3D position?”
The answer comes from physics: your receiver’s quartz clock isn’t as precise as the atomic clocks in space. Even a millionth-of-a-second error introduces a ~300-meter position error. The fourth satellite acts as a time referee, correcting clock drift to ensure precise positioning.
Without corrections from Einstein’s theory of general relativity, GPS would fail spectacularly. Why?
GPS is one of the most widespread real-world applications where general relativity is not just theoretical—it’s operational.
This range of accuracy enables everything from navigation apps to autonomous drones, precision agriculture, and enterprise asset tracking.
To help enterprises understand the power behind solutions like AutoTrace, here’s a deeper look at GPS technology:
GPS does more than just say “where”—it unlocks new levels of visibility, control, and efficiency across industries.
Consider:
Most critically, GPS solves a major shortcoming of traditional surveillance: cameras only see on-site activity; GPS sees everything, everywhere.
For enterprises managing fleets, equipment yards, or high-value goods, theft and loss are enormous risks. Traditional cameras can record incidents only within property limits—but what happens when a truck leaves the depot or a trailer is stolen from a remote lot?
AutoTrace uses GPS-enabled asset trackers to provide:
Companies using AutoTrace have achieved a 45% increase in stolen inventory recovery and a 94% reduction in manual inventory labor. One nationwide auto dealer saved $10 million in recovered vehicle thefts within their first year of deployment.
GPS transformed asset tracking by providing real-time, precise outdoor location data. But as operations become more dynamic and geographically complex, GPS alone isn’t enough.
That’s where AutoTrace stands apart.
By combining GPS with BLE, UWB, RFID, WiFi, and other inputs, AutoTrace delivers seamless, uninterrupted visibility—bridging the gaps where GPS can’t reach. It’s not just about knowing where something is; it’s about understanding how, when, and why it’s moving so teams can act faster, smarter, and more confidently.
This flexible, hardware-agnostic approach empowers decision-makers to:
In short, the future of asset tracking isn’t GPS or indoor positioning—it’s both, working together in an intelligent, unified platform.
