One of the biggest chores for many business professionals is manually recording business-related mileage and stops. This leads to a huge headache at tax or company reimbursement time -- trying to track down missing data. Too much hard-earned money may incorrectly go to Uncle Sam or expense reimbursements could go unpaid. Now with the help of a tiny satellite receiver and companion software that automatically record and identify tax deductible travel, these problems can be a thing of the past. Developed by Houston-based Advanced Tracking Technologies Inc., TravelEyes2 is a patent-pending comprehensive vehicle-tracking system utilizing GPS satellite technology that can record your business travel time and mileage, plan your trips and guide you down the road. The TravelEyes satellite receiver gathers and stores GPS (Global Positioning System) signals, showing the exact locations visited by the vehicle, time on site, speeds en route, and the time the vehicle left each location. Used with its mapping and reports software, the device tracks miles driven on a daily basis, maintains a timelog and produces comprehensive reports on all travel activities. Additionally, when plugged into a laptop, it becomes an on-board navigation device in real time, displaying planned destination routes and current location. Missed meetings from a wrong turn can be minimized. The software installs on a PC or laptop within minutes and the TravelEyes device is equally easy to use, according to ATTI. Simply plug it into the vehicle's cigarette lighter, lay the antenna on the dashboard and drive. Upon your return, or after up to 50 hours of driving time, download the data onto your computer to receive an instant report for tax records or mileage billing and reimbursement. Business travel can be simplified with fast and accurate travel directions from the TravelEyes trip planning feature, according to ATTI. Supply the destination address, zipcode and city and the system will draw the route on a map, highlight it and provide directions you can print out before leaving the office. The TravelEyes device -- approximately the size of a deck of cards -- plus its tiny antenna and connecting cables, (all weighing less than 1/2 pound) can be tucked in a pocket or briefcase, allowing you to carry it from city to city when you fly out of town. Use it in rental cars, then download the device when you return to your home or office, providing one report for the whole trip. If you spend a half hour a day on mileage logs or reports, you can save time as well as money -- up to 100 hours of paperwork per year -- leaving more for income production or family. And regarding family, as an added bonus you can use it track your teenager's driving habits, speed and route traveled. The device can be easily concealed for a more accurate picture.
