Location Tracking and Dead Goats

October 15, 2013

If you’ve seen the George Clooney movie ” Men who stare at goats”, you will know what Remote Viewing is – the ability to see locations using telepathy. In this hilarious film, Clooney plays Lyn Cassidy, a trainer of psychic spies, who try to develop such dubious talents as killing a goat by simply looking at it.

While, we can’t quite match that second promise, we can give you the next best thing to Remote Viewing, and that is the ability to remotely see the location of your target device on a map.

There are two main ways to ‘remote view’:

Location On Demand is a function used to get the current location of the target. Unlike Location tracking, it’s a one time operation. You issue the command to get the current location directly from the Current Location screen. If you have SMS credits, you will get the location back within minutes and see it on the map -( you will need to refresh the page from time to time). If you don’t have credits you can send the command using your own mobile device (the SMS will not be seen), or you can use the network command here.

Location Tracking is used when you want to track the movement of the device in real time. The device will send its location back to the server automatically at the time intervals you select. These can range from once every 10 minutes to once an hour. Bear in mind that the more frequent the reporting the greater the battery drain.

Oh, and we can assure you that no goats will be killed when using this feature!
