GPS Forensics

GPS or Global Positioning Systems have become very popular throughout the world today.  We see them in handheld models as well as internal and external automotive models.  Most models today allow the user to pair their cell phone with their GPS.  In some cases when this happens some of the data on the cell phone will migrate to the GPS.  If the cell phone has paired to the GPS you may find text messages call logs and in some cases images. 

What data is obtained?

• Tracks with latitude and Longitude, including the date and time stamps
• Way Points
• Home locations
• Evidence of pairing to a cell phone
• Location searches
