GPS Tracking. GPS tracking is a great investigation tool.This is particularly true in a case that you need to find out someone's travel patterns and habits.You can not only track where someone has been, but you can see where they are right now.Whether you are an employer and you want to track your vehicles and their usage, or a parent wondering where your teen really goes, this is important information.There are all sorts of uses for this, be creative and decide if this information can help you.The amounts and costs may change over time, but the relative savings should last for some time.The Cost of GPS Tracking. Tracking cell phones is something there is a lot of misinformation about.I hope to give another reason to use this service.Say you need to have something GPS tracked on a short-term temporary basis.Not only do you have to buy the tracker (normally about $150), you need to initialize the service (usually about $70).After the initialization, you need to purchase a data tracking plan.Those are about $70 a month for a three month minimum contract.Let's say you only need to track a car for about two weeks.It may not be worth your money (about $430) to buy a designated GPS tracker and have it installed on the vehicle.The Budget Alternative. Now I am talking about tracking a car and you cannot leave your own smart phone in it.I am talking about a designated target vehicle that you need to temporarily track.I will give you an easy to use and fairly inexpensive alternative.There is a free online GPS tracking service for several phones on the internet.One such plan is Instamapper.Using such a plan you can have a cheaper GPS tracking system.All you need to do is get a boost mobile IDen phone for about $50.Then all you need to buy is the unlimited plan card for about $40 which costs about $.35 a day.So now you have a $90 option.That is more than 75% less than using a professional GPS tracking service.How to make it work. It is easy to use this cheaper alternative.All you need to do is activate the phone, load the software into the phone, and put the phone in the car.If you are hiding the phone, you need to make sure the phone gets GPS signal.You can connect the phone to the car's power to have basically "unlimited life", otherwise, you have the 8 hour to a day or so that the battery lasts on the phone.Now for my disclaimer. Even though this is not a super-stealth method, you need to know that there are legal consequences for tracking a vehicle that is not you own, so I only recommend doing this only with your own vehicles.I am always for people saving money to conduct their investigations.Have fun and be your own detective.
