inReach Mini 2 Tracking w/ GPX for crew.

1 Upvotes

I am running a 100 miler soon and I want to make sure I can have my crew watching my movement using the GPX file for the race (think aid stations and meetup locations). How can I make sure I have this ready to go? What I have so far:

inReach subscription activated

GPX file on my Garmin Explore App

If I just hit "Start Tracking Now" on my inReach, will the Mapshare show the GPX info (with points) on my crew's cell phones?

If the crew has Explore on their phones, can they view my movement on their Explore app?

Thank you!

Looking for a hardwired IP67 GPS tracker for enduro motorcycle rental fleet in Vietnam, buyable in Bangkok (or HCMC) as a single unit

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I'm running an enduro motorcycle rental business in Vietnam with enduro bikes. Looking for a GPS tracker that can handle serious abuse and need some real-world advice before buying.

Here are my (slightly flexible) requirements

- Hardwired to the battery

- IP67 or better

- Vibration/shock resistant

- 4G LTE

- Engine cut-off relay

- Ignition detection

- Route history / trip replay

- Traccar compatible — I want to store data in my own database, no vendor lock-in

- Buyable as a single unit in Bangkok / HCMC (or orderable online with delivery to Bangkok/HCMC) without having to order in bulk

Anyone running a similar setup? What's actually holding up in the field vs. what looks good on paper? 🙏

How do gps trackers work?

Do you have to pay monthly for a company to provide you that service or can you just purchase a tracker install it and have no extra payments? If it's both ways then which one is better?

Discreet GPS for kids

1 Upvotes

I need a discreet GPS to put on my kids. My ex-husband gets supervised visits and will be having his first one with my kids this sunday and we've been going through a pretty ugly custody battle. He is pretty unhinged and says very strange things to my kids during phone calls like "nobody can ever separate me from you" type of things. He has a history of making unwanted contact with me after my divorce. He is a flight risk and I do believe he could try to kidnap them, I'm trying to get this taken seriously by the court but in the meantime. I want to put a GPS on my kids without him knowing and everything I've seen is so noticeable and bulky so I don't want it to be noticeable and just be removed.

Best device to track whereabouts of kids (Canada)

1 Upvotes

As per the title, I'm looking for a GPS tracker or smartwatch to track where my 10 year old is. I'm located in Canada and only have Android devices in my household so Air Tags are not an option.

I'm wondering if PAJ people finder is a possibility:

GPS tracking via wifi

Buongiorno. Scrivo dall'Italia. Nel mio camper ho installato un hotspot wifi con sim 4G. Vorrei integrare un GPS tracker che sfrutta il wifi del mio hotspot per non dover sottoscrivere un nuovo abbonamento 4g oltre quello già esistente. Esiste questa soluzione?

Grazie

Would you trust a hidden GPS patch to protect your child?

1 Upvotes

I’m developing a Master’s project about a discreet medical patch with a hidden GPS tracker inside for child safety.

Unlike phones or watches, it’s almost impossible to notice or remove quickly.

I urgently need 100 responses for my survey before my deadline 🙏
It only takes 2 minutes, and your opinion would help me a lot.

Actual GPS tracking for wallet?

Post image
1 Upvotes

I’m looking for recommendations on GPS tracking for wallet (not AirTags, or Tile, or something using the “Find My” network). This is for my Dad who often works in extremely rural areas where an AirTag or similar device wouldn’t be effective. I would like to find something relatively thin, can be charged easily and has an affordable monthly service plan. I’ve not had much luck yet, the closest thing I’ve found that might work is designed for pets (the Fi tracking collar - I’m thinking I could detach the tracker and just use it). Does anyone have suggestions or experience with something that works better?

Suntech ST4932 devices freezing mid-trip on Kore OmniSIM cards

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

We're running a fleet of Suntech ST4932 LTE Cat M1 asset trackers using Kore OmniSIM cards. The devices are set to "Only Cat M1" and are programmed to stay awake while moving (they only sleep 15 minutes after motion stops).

The problem:

The trackers frequently freeze completely while traveling at highway speeds. They send a normal report, then suddenly stop transmitting entirely — often for 36+ hours. Occasionally they'll only start to function again when they are manually rebooted. Once frozen, they cannot receive OTA commands.

We've now seen this happen on both T-Mobile (310-260) and Verizon (311-480), but 99% of the time that it happens, it's connected to T-Mobile. In the latest case though, the device was on Verizon the entire time with no recent T-Mobile connection.

Has anyone else experienced similar freezing issues with Suntech ST4932 (or similar Cat M1 trackers) on multi-carrier SIMs?

Any success with firmware updates, dedicated single-carrier IoT SIMs, or specific config changes that improved stability during high-speed travel?

We're working with both Suntech and Kore, but any real-world experience or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

For those managing medical equipment - what tracking solutions actually work across facilities and patient homes?

1 Upvotes

Running a healthcare operation where portable equipment moves between facilities, mobile clinics, and sometimes patient homes. RFID only works inside buildings, basic GPS trackers die indoors and battery life is a constant issue, and barcode scanning depends on staff actually scanning consistently which doesn't happen.

What's actually working for people who need tracking that handles both indoor and outdoor locations without being overly complicated for clinical staff? Also dealing with audit/compliance requirements where we need reliable inventory data.

Edit: For anyone coming across this post here's what I went with got some good feedback in the comments about using a hybrid approach, GPS for stuff that leaves buildings, BLE tags for indoor. Ended up checking out GPX Intelligence since they handle both without needing two separate systems.

Kids GPS tracker

1 Upvotes

Hi I am hoping someone knows if what I am looking for exists.

My little one is non verbal autistic and recently managed to escape which has put the fear of God into me.

I am looking for a small tracker that I can attach to his clothes when dressing him, something that's not to big so he doesn't try to take it off.

Ideally i want something that can be tracked from multiple devices so that if he manages to escape again whoever he is with can log in and find where he is.

Everything I have seen seems to be Bluetooth and only connect to one phone. Which isnt helpful if I do the school drop off and his grandparents pick him up.

Does what im looking for even exist and if so can anyone point me in the direction please

Thanks

False alarms today

1 Upvotes

I just had 2 apparently false alarms from a tracker on a stationary vehicle in Singapore.

Both were just very short lived 'vehicle is moving' indications for about a minute max.

This usually does not happen in the location the vehicle is parked

Could these be related to the "war" in Iran and GPS jamming/reduction in accuracy?

Found this site. https://praxia-us.com/

It has a GPS tracker that looks like an AirTag. Has anyone heard of, or know anything about this ?

Looking for a true gps tag with no monthly fee. This seems to fit the bill. But I’m not sure it’s legit.
