Your enterprise has many assets, and it’s important that you know their condition at any given time and location. An IoT solution can track that information for as many assets as you need. But how can you configure such a solution?
Losant’s Asset Tracker Application Template, one of four templates included in the Losant IoT Platform, makes it easy. The Asset Tracker Application Template illustrates a geolocation-based asset tracking solution with temperature, shock, and tilt monitoring. By combining real-time location data with real-time sensor data, this template delivers many asset tracking use cases such as:
- Automated delivery confirmation
- Cold-chain monitoring
- Theft prevention and recovery
- Equipment usage trends
Application Templates in Losant provide a set of real-world reference implementations that you can use for:
- Architecture guidance
