real-time tracking
Continuous position monitoring
Real-time tracking is monitoring the location or status of something as it happens, with updates delivered continuously or at very short intervals.
GPS enables real-time tracking of vehicles, packages, and people.
The term extends to any live monitoring: real-time tracking of stock prices, real-time tracking of website visitors.
The hyphen disappears when the phrase follows a noun: tracking in real time.
