For this to work you will need your own web server. These instructions assume you know what you're doing on the programming end. Let us assume that you own mygpstracking.com.
On that server you write a script named, say, track.php for recording incoming tracks. The URL of your script is http://mygpstracking.com/track.php. Your script accepts
two URL parameters, latitude and longitude. Then the tracking URL that you enter into the Relation Fleet GPS Tracking app would be
http://mygpstracking.com/track.php?latitude=@LAT@&longitude=@LON@
So, the current replacements are:
@LAT@ | Current latitude |
@LON@ | Current longitude |
@ACC@ | Accuracy (in meters) |
Furthermore, there is an additional parameter, timestamp, that is passed with every request that is the UTC timestamp in miliseconds of when the track was recorded. If there is a poor data connection,
tracks will be stored and forwarded once they are live.
To configure the app, open the app and click Manual Configuration:
Then enter the URL for your tracking script with @LAT@ and @LON@ in the appropriate location and click save:
Once saved, you're ready to start tracking! If it doesn't seem to be tracking right, check your server logs to see what might be going wrong.
