Millions of children around the world will be able to track Santa Claus as he travels around the world delivering presents.Using Santa Cams in cities along his journey the tracker allows youngsters to track his progress on the internet or mobile phones.
As soon as he takes off from his base in the North Pole, he can be located through updates on Google Maps and Google Earth.
The tracker is organised by NORAD, the people normally responsible for defending North America from incoming nuclear missiles.
The organisation can follow Santa with its radar and satellite technology, as well as detecting the infra-red signature left by Rudolph's red nose.
On behalf of children everywhere -"Thank-you NORAD".
They say that although they can locate where Santa is at any given time they can't predict his route or when he'll arrive at your house.

"We do, however, know from history that it appears he arrives only when children are asleep, if they're still awake when he arrives, he moves on to other houses. He returns later, but only when the children are asleep".
