How does plant tracking work?
Plant equipment tracking works by using advanced GPS (global positioning system) technology to monitor and track the location of plant equipment. A GPS tracker is installed, which provides real-time location information. This tracker communicates with satellites to determine the precise geographic coordinates of the plant machinery or equipment.
The GPS tracker collects location data and sends it to a central server or database. From there, users can access this information through a web-based platform or mobile app. They can view the current location of the tracked asset, as well as its movement history.
Plant tracking systems often offer additional features, such as geofencing, which allows users to set virtual boundaries on a map. If the tracked plant machinery moves beyond these boundaries, the system triggers an alert, notifying the user.
The collected data can be analyzed to optimize plant usage, improve efficiency, and prevent theft. It provides valuable insights into plant equipment utilization. With this information, your business can make informed decisions about your plant operations, reducing downtime and increasing productivity.

The advantages of plant tracking
GPS tracking devices can deter plant theft and assist in the recovery of stolen plant equipment. By knowing the exact location of your equipment at all times, you can be notified if unauthorized movements occur, and take action.
With a GPS tracker fitted, managers can monitor the location and movement of all plant equipment in real-time. This enables better scheduling and deployment of machinery based on site needs, reducing downtime and improving operational efficiency.
GPS tracking systems can be used to monitor plant machinery usage, such as time on site. This data can help schedule regular maintenance, preventing breakdowns and extending the lifespan of the plant machinery.
By monitoring equipment locations and movements, asset tracking can help enforce safety zones and prevent plant equipment from being operated in restricted or unsafe areas.
With fast access to up-to-date locations, your plant machinery can be deployed to meet your business and customer's needs in an efficient and responsive manner. Your team can identify the nearest asset, its status, and make fast deployment decisions.
GPS tracking systems generate valuable data that can be analyzed to gain insights into equipment usage patterns, operational efficiency, and areas for improvement. This information can be used to make informed decisions, improve workflows, and increase productivity.
