Role Of A Cloud Software In The IoT Asset Tracking System
A cloud software is a major part of an IoT asset tracking system.
It provides a centralized platform for managing IoT gateways and sensors, accepting, analyzing and processing data, and producing human readable reports.
The cloud software is responsible for:
- Data processing, storage and management.
A cloud software accepts asset tracking and other asset related data from the IoT gateways, processes data in real time and stores data in the database on a cloud server.
- Reports and data analysis. A cloud software produces real time reports on asset location and movement, as well as statistical and analytical reports.
- Real time data access from anywhere. A cloud software allows all authorized IoT asset tracking system users access live info on demand, on the office computers and mobile devices.
- Review of field IoT devices. You can review registered IoT devices, such as gateways and sensors, and their configuration parameters.
- System configuration. You can configure IoT asset tracking system to your requirements using a cloud software web interface.
IoT Asset Tracking System Cloud Software Specs
- Manage trackable locations, such as warehouse zones, job sites, service trucks, etc. Link deployed IoT gateways to locations.
- Review registered BLE gateways, their configuration parameters and activity. Check last report date and time, identify gateways that went offline and correct
the problem fast.
- Manage trackable assets: add, update, delete, import. Add any data, images and pdf documents to assets using custom fields.
- Manage users of IoT asset tracking system, assign user roles.
- Review asset tracking reports: current assets location, assets movement history, missing assets.
- Review triggered alerts for misplaced assets, when the problem was detected and when it was corrected.
- Optionally review temperature and humidity logs for assets and locations, and triggered alerts.
- Check which assets went through the gates when, on what truck or with what employee.
