Each year churches all over the country greet the holiday season by displaying nativity scenes. And every year people steal the baby Jesus from these nativity scenes. Ever hopeful and ever optimistic, churches continue to put out these holiday displays with the hope that no one will tamper with the nativity scene.
Now some churches have decided to do more than hope: they are using GPS tracking technology to keep track of the star of their holiday displays.
Two years ago one town actually chained the baby in their display with the hopes that this would help keep it there. But to no avail, a teenager liberated the baby from the chains and made off with it. What she did not know was that the church had placed a GPS tracking device on the baby Jesus. Law enforcement officials were able to trace the missing doll and she was at first charged with a felony, but was later given a lesser punishment.
GPs tracking can help you keep up with all kinds of property, be it a vehicle, a package or a very special doll. GPS tracking devices are unobtrusive, so they are not bulky nor do they draw attention to themselves. If need be, you can get a GPS tracking device with a pay-per-use plan that allows you to only incur costs when you decide you want to use it…be in the month of December of two weeks in July or whenever.
The RMT Smart Track solution has a geo-fence that reports each time your asset moves in or out of a predetermined area from 1/8th of a mile to 300 miles. So if you have a certain object (say a doll) that for any reason may need to be moved on a certain property, you can decide just when you want to be alerted. Up to 2 geo fences can be set at one time. These geo-fences can be either rectangular or circular with reporting based upon whether the device is inside or outside the geo-fence area or when it has simply crossed the geo-fence boundary.
As much as law enforcement is supposed to help, it is sad truth that in the world we live in, the theft of your asset may not be their priority. With a GPS tracking device, you can make sure that you are informed about the location of your property.
