Cube gps moves around about 100ft? Is that normal?

[red324]

I dropped my vehicle off to be worked on and noticed it only updates once every 24hrs now and sometimes after it updates it will show its like 100ft in a different spot, but it doesn't show that it actually moved. I think they've moved it a couple times, but the rest of the time was just inaccuracy in the gps. You can check and see what time its been moved, but the fact that it updates everyday at the same time and now it shows its sitting 100ft in the woods is kind of annoying. Guess 100ft is about as accurate as it gets for a vehicle tracker?

Vehicle GPS trackers are highly accurate for navigation and tracking, generally pinpointing locations within 3 to 10 meters (10 to 33 feet) under normal, open-sky conditions. While high-end devices can achieve accuracy within 1 meter, urban areas with tall buildings ("canyon effects") or heavy tree cover can reduce this accuracy to over 100 meters, or cause complete signal loss.

I suspect that your issues have to do with where it is parked.

I have noticed a 15-20 meters accuracy, with your average China tracker. The seemingly „bouncing“ signal is normal, though.

It shows me driving halfway into my neighbors yard and I know I didn't do that because the fence isn't knocked down lol. It's just annoying because I really can't tell jf they're actually working on it at the shop or if its just been sitting there the last two weeks.

I guess within 100ft is good enough to know its general location
