01 / Applications

Use cases & priorities

01

Open pasture

Define grazing areas, terrain and where location updates are actually needed. Identify areas with weak connectivity before choosing a device.

02

Herd checks

Decide which location records would help plan routine checks and how staff will follow up on an animal outside the expected area.

03

Wear and maintenance

Evaluate collar fit, attachment, weight and inspection routines with the final hardware. Plan how devices will be charged or serviced in the field.

02 / GPS & IoT

Plan the complete setup

GPS positioning does not transmit a location by itself. Cellular, LoRaWAN or satellite connectivity must be selected for the operating environment.

  1. 01

    Check local coverage, supported bands and reporting frequency before choosing a device.

  2. 02

    Confirm mounting, fit, enclosure protection and maintenance with the final hardware specification.

  3. 03

    Confirm platform access, data ownership, integration protocol and recurring costs.

03 / Deployment

Field trial checklist

  • Walk or ride representative routes and record communication gaps.
  • Check attachment and fit during normal movement under suitable supervision.
  • Measure reporting intervals and battery use over a representative trial.
  • Assign who reviews alerts and physically checks an animal.

Development & OEM

Customization may cover enclosure, branding, firmware and integration. Scope, minimum order and certification require review.

Why work with JSC

A practical approach to your GPS project.

Applications come first

Explore vehicle, pet, personal, livestock and marine tracking in one place. Start with your setting and select the product direction that fits your application.

Products

Plan devices and data together

Consider the device, connectivity and platform as one project. Put data access, integration requirements and recurring costs into the discussion from the start.

Read article

Shape your OEM brief

Bring your branding, enclosure, firmware or integration requirements into a structured OEM conversation. Scope, feasibility and minimum quantities are agreed for the project.

Plan a custom solution

Start with a field trial

Use a sample or pilot to evaluate coverage, installation and alerts in the intended environment before planning a wider deployment.

Good questions. Clear answers.

01Does GPS need a SIM card?

GPS receives positioning signals. Sending that position to an app requires a separate connection, such as cellular, LoRaWAN or satellite, depending on the device.

02Will a tracker work at sea?

Cellular service depends on local coverage. Offshore use may require satellite communication; GPS alone cannot send a location ashore.

03How long will the battery last?

Reporting interval, signal strength, temperature and battery capacity all matter. Ask for measurements under your actual usage conditions.

04Can I customize a product?

Prepare your target market, connectivity, enclosure, quantity and integration requirements. Feasibility, minimum order and certification need project-specific confirmation.
