GPX Insights
Asset tracking, supply chain visibility and the GPS and BLE hardware behind them, written by the GPX team.
Explosion proof and hazardous location GPS trackers must be certified under a standard such as ATEX or Class I, Division 2, because standard trackers can spark or generate heat near flammable gases, vapors or combustible dust. For small battery-powered devices
Choosing a trailer tracking solution means matching the platform to how your fleet actually runs. Look for real-time location, movement and condition data over GPS and cellular, theft alerts, dwell-time data that supports detention billing, and cold chain sensors, since
QR code asset tracking and BLE tags differ in how they update your asset register. QR codes update only when someone scans the label, so records go stale after a missed scan, while BLE tags broadcast continuously and any gateway
Choosing a BLE tracker starts with whether you need business or personal tracking. Enterprise operations should look for rugged, IP67-rated tags backed by a terrestrial network, GPS handoff and analytics, while consumer tags suit personal items. Compare BLE against GPS,
Spot insider job site tool theft with check-out records and audits, then stop it with BLE AssetTag tracking and Scout AI movement alerts.
The best alternative to AirTags depends on your ecosystem and what you are tracking. Android users can look at tags on the Google Find My Device network, while businesses need a hybrid BLE and live GPS system with centralized dashboards,
The real RFID vs BLE cost per asset comes from total cost of ownership, not tag price. Passive RFID tags are cheap, but readers, antennas, cabling, installation, middleware, and maintenance drive the real expense. To compare the two fairly, divide
AI-powered supply chain visibility combines real-time GPS, BLE, and IoT sensor data with machine learning to track goods, assets, and shipments end to end. Instead of reporting problems after they happen, it flags risks such as idle trucks, temperature drift,
IP65, IP67, and IP69K ratings, defined by the IEC 60529 standard, describe how well an asset tracker’s enclosure keeps out dust and water. All three are completely dust tight, and the second digit sets liquid protection: 5 handles water jets,
Real-time inventory tracking software keeps stock counts accurate in the moment across warehouses, vehicles, yards, and job sites. When comparing platforms for 2026, look at what each does best and who it fits, then check for AI predictive replenishment, BLE
