What causes timestamp delays in BUCLOCATE, and how does it affect tracking?

Timestamp delays occur when the GPS device is unable to transmit data due to mobile network issues. BUCLOCATE depends on mobile data services from CelcomDigi. In certain regions, particularly in Sabah’s east coast areas like Lahad Datu, Tawau, and Sandakan, network coverage can be unstable. When vehicles pass through these areas, the device may not update its location data in real-time. Once the vehicle re-enters an area with a stronger signal, the GPS will resume sending updates to the system.
