Tracking of security stewards during event

Maarten Ureel21 hours ago

Hello

I am looking for a solution for an event we organize once a year. During that event we have around 10 voluntary stewards to keep an eye on things.

I would like to set up something so I can close-to-realtime see the location of those stewards so that I can guide them better to be strategically spread on the field.

I assume that if I would rely on the client app with high accuracy and update interval I would drain their batteries fast, so I was thinking to buy a few GPS trackers that they can keep in their pocket.

I browsed the forums a bit but I did not find a clear answer yet: what could you recommend as a tracker device that has a high accuracy, with an update interval of a few seconds and a battery time of 10-12 hours?

Traccar Client shouldn't be that bad in terms of battery life, even if you keep it on high accuracy.

Ah really; well, I guess I will just give it a try then in my personal mobile and see.

Regardless I also ordered a ST-904L to give it a try; I kinda also do not want to force people to install apps on their personal mobiles and so on.

But I will test out the app regardless to see, thanks.
