Despite possible reservations of schools and transport operators due to concerns about costs, installation, repairs and maintenance of GPS devices on school buses, it is undeniable that the <strong>geolocation of students is a priority for their safety and the peace of mind of the families.<\/strong> Therefore, it is crucial that we move in this direction.<\/p>\n<h2>Do we really need GPS devices installed on buses?<\/h2>\n<p>Surprisingly, the answer from <a href=\"https:\/\/batonroute.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BatOnRoute&#8217;s<\/a> perspective is: not necessarily. Our <strong>bus tracker platform<\/strong> works without the need for GPS installations. Instead, we use a web platform synchronized with mobile applications that provide accurate and up-to-date <strong>information on the location of school buses<\/strong>. The only thing we need, is a mobile phone\/ tablet on the bus. This eliminates the need for expensive GPS installations on each bus, which in turn reduces costs for schools and transport operators. Furthermore, by not depending on physical tracking devices, we avoid technical problems and the need of constant maintenance. <strong>But how exactly does it work?<\/strong> Our platform collects location data through a mobile app installed on bus drivers&#8217; phones. This data is transmitted in real time to both the web platform and the parental app, where administrators and parents respectively can easily access it.<\/p>\n<h2>Connecting People with Destinations<\/h2>\n<p>At BatOnRoute, we understand the importance of this peace of mind and security. We are l<strong>eaders in the management of passengers on buses during school\/ employee transportation,<\/strong> offering the most advanced technological platform on the market. Our objective goes beyond simply managing routes and travellers; it&#8217;s about providing peace of mind and confidence every step of the way.<\/p>\n<h3>Safe \u201cwalking to school bus\u201d journey with BatOnRoute<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Did you know that BatOnRoute not only works as a bus tracker?<\/strong> We also worry about the safety of the little ones during <a href=\"https:\/\/batonroute.com\/en\/blog\/what-is-walking-to-school-bus-and-how-do-you-guarantee-your-children-a-safe-path-to-school\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">walking to school<\/a>.
