Hi Dave,

Aside from fleet management applications which you already know about , the only other 'popular' systems, I've heard of are surveillant and proprietary like OnStar, stolen vehicle tracking e.g. loJack, telcos' child trackers and friend finder services, military war fighting and intelligence gathering.

Because location API's on mobile phones and cars are locked by the carriers and car companies, there are no 'popular and open' tracking aps on the web that I know about. And I doubt that the military and intelligence guys publish specs of their 'service' architectures.

Just curious, what kind of apps are you investigating?

Hello list! Does anyone know what the most popular systems are for server-based real time tracking? For instance, many fleet management applications expose a web interface to a datacenter that collects tracked GPS messages. What software would the datacenter probably use to do this?

Thanks,
Dave
