Indoor/Underground Location Tracking For Radios
Safety & Productivity
It is crucial that operations Locate personnel and assets reliably in environments where GPS signals are unavailable or are unreliable. MTI Tech Ltd have deployed systems in mining operations, tunnel construction operations, in canal tunnels, and also manufacturing facilities.
Indoor Location uses low-cost Bluetooth beacons to detect nearby devices, these devices or radios then transmit their position against the beacon using a combination of the received RSSI level from one or more beacons, and also the latency from each device.
Why Indoor Track Personnel & Assets Using Radios/Devices
– Locate personnel quickly and effectively in the operation, whether the accuracy is a few metres, or in a given zone.
– In the event of an emergency, understanding whether personnel are in danger is paramount. If personnel are not in danger and all accounted for, emergency services can account for this.
– Operational efficiency can be greatly improved by understanding human and vehicle travel times, where assets are located, and fastest/safest routes for personnel and vehicles.
– Geofencing can be enabled, allowing triggers and events when personnel/assets have entered a given area.
