Introducing Sitehound GIS Tracking

Geographic Intelligence for Asset Management

Location is one of the most valuable dimensions of asset data. Knowing what you have is important, but knowing where it is transforms asset management from a record-keeping exercise into an operational intelligence platform.

What GIS Tracking Provides

Interactive Maps

View asset locations on interactive maps that provide geographic context. Zoom from a global view down to individual site level. Click on assets to see their details, history, and status without leaving the map interface.

Layer Management

Overlay different data layers on your maps including asset locations, facility boundaries, service areas, and infrastructure routes. Combining layers reveals relationships and patterns that tabular data cannot show.

Location History

Track where assets have been over time. Location history supports usage analysis, route optimization, and accountability by documenting an asset's geographic journey through its lifecycle.

Supported Tracking Technologies

GPS

For outdoor mobile assets, GPS provides continuous location updates with global coverage. Fleet vehicles, heavy equipment, and shipping containers benefit from GPS tracking.

Indoor Positioning

Bluetooth beacons and WiFi-based positioning provide location tracking inside buildings where GPS signals are unavailable. Warehouses, hospitals, and offices can track asset locations with room-level precision.

Manual Location Assignment

For assets that do not have electronic tracking, locations can be recorded manually through barcode scanning at designated location points. This provides location data without the cost of electronic tracking hardware.

Integration with Asset Management

GIS tracking is not a standalone feature but an integral part of the Sitehound platform. Location data connects with maintenance records, inventory levels, lifecycle status, and workflow management to create a comprehensive asset management solution with geographic intelligence built in.
