How the system works

How the system works — from the tracker to your account

A tracker in the vehicle, our server, the gpsonline.tj account and an app on your phone. This page shows how they connect, what the account contains and who sees what — and the demo fleet shows it all at work.

Data path

The path of one point: from the tracker to your screen

The tracker sends one location point after another. Here is what each point passes through and who is responsible for each stage.

  1. Tracker in the vehicle

    Works out its position from satellites and sends a point. While there is no network, points wait in the tracker's memory.

    What happens without a connection
  2. Mobile network

    The point travels over mobile internet through the tracker's SIM card.

  3. Our server in Dushanbe

    The software platform receives the points, turns them into trips, events and reports, and stores the trip history.

  4. Account and app

    Vehicles on the map — in a browser at gpsonline.tj and on your phone.

Access

Each user sees only what is theirs

An employee is assigned vehicles, places and geofences, and does not see the rest. The activity log shows who signed in, when and from which address, and what they changed.

Role (example)

Sees 41 of 41 vehicles

Sees 6 of 41 vehicles

Sees 6 of 41 vehicles

The roles here are an example. In the account you create your own users and roles and assign each person their own vehicles, places and geofences.

Compatibility

Will your tracker work

We choose and install the trackers ourselves. If your vehicles already have other trackers, send us the models and we will check whether they work with the system.

Trackers we install and service
01Are the vehicles on the demo fleet map real?

No, they are all fictional: the demo fleet's vehicles, drivers and routes follow a preset scenario. Our clients' vehicles are not shown on the website.

02Why does the demo update every 15 seconds?

That is how often the demo fleet is recalculated. In the account, how often location points arrive is set in the tracker's settings.

03How is the demo different from my account?

Your account shows your own vehicles, geofences and rules. The set of sections depends on your plan, and some features depend on the hardware: for example, to see refuelling and fuel drains you need a fuel level sensor.
