In the contemporary commercial environment, vehicle tracking has become indispensable for businesses, particularly those operating within the transportation and logistics sector. However, monitoring vehicles within expansive industrial parks introduces unique complexities due to scale, signal interference, and cost constraints. By adopting LoRa-based tracking solutions, businesses not only achieve real-time tracking, but also significantly reduce operational costs.
Challenge
A leading vehicle transportation provider in North America, offers a comprehensive suite of logistics services, ranging from multimodal freight transport to refrigerated dedicated services. Operating a fleet of thousands of trucks in large parking area, the company faces operational complexities in real-time tracking, necessitating individually tracking every truck to maintain oversight. However, equipping each vehicle with a SIM-based GPS tracker would incur prohibitive costs.
Similarly, another worldwide commercial vehicle manufacturer faces the same headache in Mexico. This business produces a diverse range of trucks, city buses and intercity coaches, all of them are classified as critical inventory to the company. To optimize supply chain efficiency and asset management, the firm requires real-time location visibility across large-scale industrial complexes. Although introducing SIM-based GPS trackers would be useful, the solution will introduce both high costs and signal problems in remote or obstructed areas.
Solution
To overcome these challenges and ensure reliable vehicle tracking, we introduce our LoRa FleetGuard, a LoRa-based tracking solution engineered for high-precision and cost-efficient tracking in industrial environments. Equipping every vehicle with one LoRa tracker, we establish a real-time monitoring network for vehicles operating within industrial parks.
Thanks to robust signal transmission capabilities of LoRa technology, these trackers enable to communicate over distances of approximately 7 kilometers in open spaces, even when navigating through obstacles. This ensures consistent tracking of industrial vehicles, providing businesses with uninterrupted visibility into their fleet’s movements. Managers gain instant access to the location and status of every vehicle in the fleet, facilitating proactive management and rapid response to any emergency issues.
Another key advantage worth mentioning here is the cost-effectiveness. Unlike SIM-based GPS trackers, which incur recurring SIM fees and data costs, LoRa trackers leverage LoRaWAN protocols to transmit data without cellular subscriptions. This eliminates ongoing SIM expenses, reduces upfront hardware costs and streamlines maintenance efforts through battery-powered and low-maintenance trackers. By cutting operational costs while maintaining real-time tracking precision, LoRa solutions deliver superior benefits for businesses managing fleets in large-scale industrial environments.
