ASSET MANAGEMENT SOLUTION

IoT Asset Management Solution for Real-Time Tracking and Optimization

Managing assets across large facilities, supply chains, or global operations is complex when relying on
legacy systems and manual processes.
Sensor-Online simplifies asset management by providing real-time visibility,
accurate tracking, and actionable insights across your entire asset fleet.

By improving asset utilization and monitoring movement and condition,
organizations gain better control of their investments, reduce losses,
and improve operational efficiency.

Streamline Asset Management with Full Visibility

Sensor-Online’s Asset Management solution provides a 360-degree view
of asset activity throughout the entire lifecycle.
From monitoring machine usage to optimizing fleet and logistics movements,
the platform supports smarter and faster decision-making.

  • Track asset location and movement in real time
  • Monitor asset usage and activity periods
  • Optimize asset placement across facilities and supply chains
  • Improve delivery performance and operational planning

How the Solution Works

Small, battery-powered tracking devices with embedded LoRaWAN® connectivity
are securely mounted on moving assets such as trucks, containers, pallets,
boats, parcels, tools, and machinery.

The devices collect real-time location and usage data using acceleration and motion sensors,
while operating for several years without battery replacement.
They function both indoors and outdoors, ensuring continuous connectivity.

Collected data is securely transmitted to the Sensor-Online platform,
where it is transformed into actionable insights covering asset location,
utilization, condition, and environmental exposure.

Asset Tracking Across Large and Complex Sites

In large industrial sites—often the size of cities—assets are frequently misplaced,
underutilized, or lost.
Manual inventory processes increase the risk of inefficiency, theft, and downtime.

Sensor-Online solves these challenges with an end-to-end, customizable
IoT asset tracking solution designed for industrial environments and global logistics.

The solution is especially well suited for tracking critical operational assets such as:

  • Returnable Shipping Assets (RSAs)
  • Returnable Industrial Packaging (RIPs)
  • Pallets, crates, racks, bins, and containers
  • Forklifts, industrial tools, and heavy machinery

Advanced IoT Tracking Using LoRaWAN and Cellular Networks

Sensor-Online delivers a cutting-edge tracking service based on
LoRaWAN® and cellular networks,

allowing flexible installation in pallets, packaging, equipment,
vehicles, and trailers.

  • Monitor nearby BLE tags and sensors
  • Track asset condition and environmental exposure
  • Transmit data via LoRaWAN or cellular networks

Flexible Configuration and Smart Geofencing

Each tracking device can be configured to match operational needs.
This includes adaptive tracking, movement-based reporting,
and custom geofencing rules.

  • Movement-triggered updates

  • Geofence alerts when assets enter or leave defined zones
  • Optimized power-saving modes

Track More Assets with Less Effort

By combining long battery life, open connectivity standards,
and powerful analytics, Sensor-Online enables organizations
to track more assets with lower cost and higher accuracy.

The result is a scalable, future-proof IoT asset management solution
that improves utilization, reduces losses, and supports smarter operations.

Asset Tracking for Large-Scale Industrial Environments

On large industrial sites—sometimes as vast as entire cities—assets are often misplaced, underutilized, or even lost or stolen. In many cases, inventory management still relies on manual input, making it difficult to maintain an accurate overview of asset location and usage.

Finding an asset in a warehouse is challenging enough. Tracking it across regions or globally is even more complex.

These are challenges the Sensor-Online IoT platform is designed to solve.

Sensor-Online provides an end-to-end, customizable asset tracking solution that enables organizations to monitor assets and optimize supply chain operations across industrial facilities of any size.

The solution focuses on critical operational assets, including:

  • Returnable Shipping Assets (RSAs)

  • Returnable Industrial Packaging (RIPs)

  • Racks, pallets, crates, tubs, bins, and containers

  • Forklifts and industrial vehicles

  • Tools and heavy mobile machinery


Advanced IoT Tracking Based on LoRaWAN and Cellular Networks

Sensor-Online offers a cutting-edge IoT tracking service for mapping and location data management using LoRaWAN® and cellular networks.

The latest indoor/outdoor asset tracker is built in a compact, rugged housing and delivers up to 12 years of battery life, enabling long-term, maintenance-free operation.


Low-Power, Long-Range Asset Tracking

The Sensor-Online asset management solution is based on LoRaWAN, a low-power wireless protocol designed for wide-area networks.

With LoRaWAN:

  • Devices communicate over long distances

  • Power consumption is extremely low

  • Battery life is significantly extended

  • Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is reduced

To ensure reliable positioning both indoors and outdoors, Sensor-Online trackers use a multi-technology geolocation system, combining:

  • GPS with patented low-power optimization

  • WiFi sniffing

  • Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)


Indoor and Outdoor Mapping with Google Maps

Sensor-Online extends indoor positioning capabilities through Google Maps integration.

This allows both indoor and outdoor areas—such as warehouses, factories, and industrial sites—to be mapped and visualized with the required level of accuracy, giving users a clear, intuitive overview of asset locations.


Intelligent Asset Tracker Design

The Sensor-Online indoor/outdoor asset tracker is built on GPS, BLE, and LoRaWAN technology and automatically switches between indoor and outdoor positioning modes.
