"Real estate agents are asked to drive relative strangers around all day, often after only receiving a copy of a driver's license or some other form of ID that could easily be faked. If something were to happen while you were out with that person, who would be able to find you? Where would they begin looking? A GPS tracking system can let others know exactly where you are at all times, allowing them to send help right away in that event." A GPS tracking device serves as a 'homing beacon' of sorts, allowing others to pinpoint your exact location on a map from any computer with an internet connection. units also have a SOS panic button. Activating the alarm would send a "Help" message and location information to the control center. For law enforcement agencies this is helpful in car-jacking situations also. "Real estate agent looking for that added layer of personal protection while out in the field."
