Millions of children will be able to track Santa Claus this Christmas Eve as he travels round the world delivering presents
Using Santa Cams in cities along his journey, the tracker - which goes live at 9am - allows youngsters to monitor 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, which is normally responsible for defending North America from incoming nuclear missiles.
But on Christmas Eve it turns it attention to following Santa's journey around the globe.
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
