    Abstract: A method for continually and precisely tracking objects over a set distance that includes a starting point and a finishing point. A reference point, RTK, is established with in the set distance. GPS nodes are connected to each object and periodically transmit a location signal and identification code of the say object within the set distance. The node receives the location signal and verifies the accuracy with the reference device. The node sends the location signal and identification code to the remote collection unit that calculates actual speed, course, and heading of the object and organizes the information into data packets. The data is then used to create an animated image of the objects and there course. A server transmits the data packets and animation through the Internet to adjacent servers that will be accessed using specific mobile and Internet applications. Information is added at the servers to the live animated transmission.
