Personal GPS Duress Systems
Canpro Pacific Services, Western Canada's leading provider of personal protection and threat management, introduced the use of Global Positioning System (GPS) as a tool for its clients at the start of 2004.
GPS is a world wide radio navigation system formed from a constellation of satellites and their ground stations. GPS uses these satellites as reference points to calculate positions accurate to a matter of meters. In fact, with advanced forms of GPS you can make measurements to better than a centimetre!
Canpro supplies GPS tracking for its clients in the form of covert vehicle mounted units and personal GPS enabled cell phones. The idea behind the program is that clients and their families can have their locations tracked at all times, 24X7, for protection purposes. The system has a direct connect panic feature that will put the person in contact with a Canpro protection manager 24 hours a day / seven days a week. At all times, a member Canpro's protection team monitors a mobile unit that tracks and records all locations of active GPS units.
The vehicle GPS units are covert and mounted in such a way no sign of installation is present. Canpro can not only track the vehicles location but can activate the horn, turn on/off the lights, kill power to the vehicle and even unlock doors if required.
As Western Canada's leading protection company we are continuously looking at ways of further reducing risks and improving personal security in a cost efficient manner. With the changing technology we have created a mobile alarm system that not only tracks your current position (person, vehicle, boat) but also allows you to contact to a protection manager at anytime if and when required.
All tracking information is secure and password protected, the only time this information is reviewed is during the weekly maintenance check and/or in the case of the duress system been activated or the request of the client.
The system has successfully been used for both executives and their families to improve personal security and safety at an affordable price.
