Tracking a subject no longer relies solely on physical devices attached to vehicles. Investigators today can access a vast range of precise digital location data—from smartphones and apps to ride share records and vehicle forensics.

This session will explore how data from sources like Life360, Garmin, Uber, and rental car services can provide unparalleled precision movement patterns. Additionally, open-source intelligence offers valuable insights into a target’s or victim’s movements through social media and other online sources, including dating apps like Tinder.

We’ll also demonstrate how Penlink’s advanced analysis tools help investigative teams collect, visualize, and analyze data from providers like Google, Facebook, and Snapchat—accelerating casework and improving efficiency.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

• Understand how location-based apps such as Life360, Garmin, and CovertTrack collect movement data.
• Recognize the value of ride share and delivery service data from Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, and Uber Eats.
• Obtain location data from platforms like Facebook, and Snapchat through legal requests.
• Utilize OSINT to gather publicly available location insights from social media, forums, and dating apps.
• Explore the role of vehicle forensics tools like BERLA and rental car records in tracking movements.
