Understanding Location-Based Asset Tracking

Let’s clarify what location-based asset tracking is not. Without the power of location technology, achieving real-time asset tracking becomes impossible. Manual methods such as tracking through spreadsheets, manual check-ins/check-outs or visual inspections fall short of the true potential of location-based asset tracking that is sought after today. These outdated approaches lack automation and real-time data, leading to inaccuracies and limited visibility of assets. Technologies such as GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, although once popular, are gradually fading away as they fail to provide the level of accuracy and seamless tracking without the right infrastructure.

Limitations of Traditional Asset Tracking Methods

Let’s dive in and explore the common hurdles that traditional methods often encounter, making them less effective and efficient: 

• Manual Tracking: Traditional asset tracking methods rely heavily on manual processes such as paper-based logs or spreadsheets. Unfortunately, these methods leave room for human errors to creep in. As a result, asset records can become inaccurate, updates may be delayed, and finding assets can become quite challenging.
• Limited Visibility: Without the integration of advanced technologies, these methods fall short in delivering comprehensive insights. They typically offer only basic information like asset names or numbers, lacking real-time updates and precise location details.
• Time-Consuming Inventory Checks: Conducting manual inventory checks to ensure the presence and condition of assets can be quite time-consuming and labor-intensive, requiring individuals to physically inspect each asset. As the number of assets increases or events grow in scale, this task becomes even more challenging.
• Lack of Real-Time Updates: Outdated methods don’t provide you with real-time updates on the movement and status of your assets. Delays in identifying missing or misplaced assets slow you down and cause unnecessary inefficiencies, delays, and increased costs.
• Inefficient Resource Allocation: Without accurate and up-to-date asset tracking, it becomes difficult to allocate resources effectively. This can lead to overstocking or underutilization of assets, causing unnecessary expenses and operational inefficiencies.
• Limited Insights and Analytics: Traditional methods often lack the capability to provide meaningful insights and analytics on asset usage, maintenance history, and performance. This hinders data-driven decision-making and proactive asset management.
• Lack of Integration: Traditional asset tracking methods may operate in silos, making it challenging to integrate with other systems and technologies. This limits the ability to streamline workflows, share data, and collaborate across different departments or stakeholders involved in event management.

Taking Asset Tracking to New Heights with Mapsted’s Location-Based Solution

No matter what event management business you’re in, Mapsted is here to provide you with a superior solution that opens up a world of possibilities for tracking and managing your assets with unrivaled accuracy and efficiency. Here’s how our technology works:

• Assessment and Planning: The implementation process begins with a thorough assessment of the event’s requirements and asset tracking needs. This includes identifying the assets to be tracked, their specific tracking requirements and the desired outcomes. A detailed plan is then developed, outlining the deployment strategy and timeline.
• Digital Twin Creation: A digital twin is created for the event venue, mapping its physical layout and assets onto a digital map. This digital twin serves as the foundation for accurate asset tracking and visualization.
• Asset Tagging: Assets to be tracked are virtually tagged with data from proximity sensors, magnetic sensors and other IoT sensors, enabling them to be precisely located within a meter. Tagging various types of assets, such as equipment, displays or merchandise are possible with Mapsted.
• Mobile Application Integration: Mapsted’s asset tracking solution integrates with a mobile application that event staff can use to access real-time asset tracking information. The mobile app provides a user-friendly interface to view asset locations, track movements, and manage assets efficiently.
• System Integration: Mapsted’s location-based asset tracking solution can seamlessly integrate with existing event management systems and infrastructure. This enables the exchange of data and information between different platforms, such as inventory management systems or resource planning tools. Integration ensures a unified and comprehensive view of asset tracking within the broader event management ecosystem.
• Customization and Scalability: Mapsted’s solution offers flexibility for customization to meet specific event requirements. It can be tailored to track different types of assets, define custom alerts and notifications, and generate customized reports and analytics. Additionally, the solution is scalable, allowing it to handle large-scale events with numerous assets and complex tracking needs.
