Asset tracking, supply chain visibility and the GPS and BLE hardware behind them, written by the GPX team.
Supply chain visibility suffers with RFID because it only reports an asset’s location at a scanning point, leaving blind spots once items move out of range. Mesh-networked BLE tags combined with GPS relay nodes report positions continuously in real time,
Delivery and logistics companies improve shipment visibility and prevent loss by placing GPS trackers with packages and shipments, so each location update appears on a real-time map in a mobile app or web browser. Trackers also deter theft and fill
Short answer: A GPS tracker works out its own position from satellite signals, then sends that position over a cellular network (or through a nearby Bluetooth gateway) to a platform where you see it on a map. Business trackers such
GPS medical device tracking gives durable medical equipment providers real-time visibility of wheelchairs, ventilators, oxygen concentrators and other high-value assets deployed in patients’ homes. It reduces lost or misplaced equipment, improves utilization, replaces manual tracking processes and helps staff locate
A GPS tracker for stolen equipment calculates its location from satellite signals and transmits it over cellular networks to a secure software platform, so businesses see where assets are from a desktop or mobile app. Because fences and locks are
GPS tracking helps buy-here-pay-here dealers protect financed vehicles by showing where every unit is, flagging early signs of loan trouble and sending recovery agents straight to a car when a loan defaults. Key features include geofencing, starter interrupt with payment
GPS tracking for the construction industry gives managers real-time visibility into the location and operating status of equipment across job sites. It sends instant alerts when machines such as skid steers or mini excavators move without authorization, supports faster recovery
GPS tracking improves yard management by tagging trucks and trailers so managers can find any asset’s last stopped location in a mobile app instead of relying on written records. When drivers park in unplanned spaces, the yard team still locates
Fleet tracking optimizes business and increases productivity by giving managers real-time visibility of vehicles, equipment and returnable containers, replacing labor-intensive manual methods. GPS fleet tracking supports route optimization that can reduce travel times, lowers fuel costs, improves driver safety and
Supply chain visibility is essential during trade wars because shifting tariffs raise costs, add delays and squeeze margins, leaving no room for idle or inefficient shipments. Real-time tracking and actionable intelligence replace periodic carrier updates and manual check-ins, so businesses
