Never Lose Track of Your Assets Again
Imagine hearing about it the same hour your equipment leaves a job site, when rentals return to base, or when shipments arrive at their destination. With Airpinpoint's movement notifications, you can create virtual boundaries (geofences) around any location and get an alert when your tracked items move in or out.
What Are Movement Notifications?
Movement notifications are simple: Draw a circle on a map around your important locations, select which items to track, and get notified when they move in or out of these areas. No complex setup required.
Airpinpoint does not fire on a single reading. It waits until seven consecutive location reports agree the item is on the new side of the line, which keeps one stray report relayed by a passing iPhone out of your inbox. Near populated areas, where a tag is seen every few minutes, that alert typically lands 15 to 40 minutes after the crossing. Somewhere with no foot traffic it waits until a person walks past.
