Zusammenfassung:An asset tracking unit associated with an asset determines that the asset is located at a site and establishes a geofence. The asset tracking unit transmits a notification to a central dispatch that the asset is at the site. In the event that the asset moves beyond the geofence boundary, a notification is sent to the central dispatch indicating that the asset has moved. The asset tracking unit established the geofence based on pre-established boundary criteria that are stored at the asset tracking unit.
