Homeland Security and Fleet Asset Tracking Solution
Available
(For Immediate Release)
DALLAS, TEXAS--March 18, 2004 -- TransID LLC, a leading
asset tracking solutions provider, announced the introduction
of a Homeland Security and asset tracking device that combines
local area peer-to-peer communication with GPS satellite
tracking and GSM cellular capabilities, supported by a secure
Internet based yard and asset management software package.
This compact unit, approximately the size of a TV remote
control, uses both mobile ad-hoc and GSM communications to
provide complete wireless coverage while in the yard, lot, or
terminal, and while in transit.
These high security-tracking
units include the ability to provide telemetry information
such as speed, direction, altitude, door open/close status,
temperature, fuel levels, and "emergency" conditions, and
include a rechargeable backup battery. Additional sensors may
be interfaced to include critical trailer and engine
information. Pricing for these units is lower than existing
traditional tracking units with less features and
functionality.
For those whose business is
moving goods, continuous real-time knowledge of cargo location
and security is a high priority. The whereabouts and integrity
of high value or high risk shipments, including hazardous
materials, must be known and accessible to authorized personnel
at all times. In addition to freight tracking, all rental,
utility, service and delivery vehicles, and heavy-duty
construction equipment businesses can benefit from continuous
location and telemetry information provided by this solution.
Positive bottom line impact is realized through increased fleet
efficiency, improved asset optimization, and the prevention of
unauthorized use and activities, including lost or stolen cargo
and vehicles.
