The Global Container Geofence Library: an initiative of industry experts

The Global Container Geofence Library: an initiative of industry experts

Geofencing employs geo-coordinates to create virtual perimeters around a specific location, enabling the real-time monitoring of IoT-enabled containers as they enter or leave designated zones. This technology revolutionises logistics management by offering unprecedented visibility and control over container movements. It enhances operational efficiency and security across the global supply chain by allowing companies to monitor and stipulate where, for example, a truck carrying high-value pharmaceuticals or luxury goods can stop. Safe zones can be designated for rests, food, or bathroom breaks to ensure the security of the cargo.
