GLOBAL CONNECTIVITY SOLUTION FOR STOLEN VEHICLE RECOVERY

From Wiki Knowledge Base | Teltonika GPS

Introduction

Vehicle theft and related criminal activity is a costly challenge and, despite some fluctuations, it is still on the rise worldwide. Regrettably, globalisation and uneven technological advances have led to a quite dramatic increase in car theft, making some developing countries the attractive markets for cars stolen abroad. Teltonika Telematics is ready to offer a present-day solution to address this important issue.

Solution description

Teltonika Global Connectivity Solution, which at least consists of a SIM card and an IoT Platform to manage it, is designed to connect GPS devices anywhere over a mobile network using the SIM card data plan. As a result, a GPS tracker with a SIM card and a global data plan can connect to the internet worldwide allowing it to manage its functions and information all the time. This ensures constant communication, timely alerts, and relevant data transfer to a dedicated server, and in our case, the most important thing – the trip history details and coordinates to recover the stolen vehicle.

Obviously, a GPS tracker must be available and connectable via a mobile network to locate the vehicle of interest. For connectivity, differently from regular local operator plans, we offer one of the most comprehensive Teltonika Global Plan, covering 134 countries and territories around the world as of October, 2023 with up to 3 major network operators available in each country. For that reason, a vehicle with a Teltonika GPS tracker and a Teltonika Global Plan can be located and recovered from the farthest country (obviously, if that country is on the Global Plan coverage list
