Zusammenfassung:An example asset tracking and management method executed by a processor in a vehicle or a trailer of the vehicle can include detecting a detachment of the trailer from the vehicle at a first geographical location. A message may be sent to a server/cloud computer to inform the server/cloud computer of the detachment of the trailer from the vehicle. The message can include location information for identifying the first geographical location. Inventory information such as, for example, a tracking number and/or a description of an item contained in the trailer may also be sent. The server/cloud computer receives the message and assigns another vehicle to travel to the first geographical location by using the location information and transport the trailer or the item to a second geographical location. The second geographical location can be a destination for delivery of the item.
