How can GPS positioning for agricultural machinery be used in equipment management?
Agricultural machinery is widely dispersed across fields, warehouses, and various service zones, with operations highly seasonal. The FOFN Agricultural Machinery GPS Tracking Solution, integrated with in-vehicle tracking terminals, allows users to view real-time equipment location, historical routes, dwell areas, and basic operational status on the platform—supporting dispatching, routine inspections, and anomaly verification.
Which business scenarios does it suit?
Ideal for farms, cooperatives, agricultural machinery leasing companies, service teams, and dealers managing tractors, harvesters, seeders, crop protection machinery, and similar equipment. Geofences can be configured per field, warehouse, repair station, or designated work zone to monitor equipment entry/exit, parking, and unauthorized movement.
How to select the right device?
Select terminals based on equipment voltage, mounting location, operating environment, network coverage, and dust/water resistance requirements. Standard GPS tracking suffices for location and route management; autonomous driving, precise area calculation, or RTK high-precision control require dedicated systems configured per project specifications.
Functional Modules:
Equipment Location View
View real-time location, online status, and last update time per device—subject to device configuration and network conditions.
Historical Route Playback
Review movement paths, dwell zones, and operational time windows to support dispatching and record verification.
Work Area Management
Configure geofences by field, warehouse, maintenance point, or custom operational zone.
Unauthorized Movement Alerts
Trigger alerts based on terminal-supported events such as displacement, power loss, or geofence breach to detect unplanned relocation or usage.
Basic Operational Status
Wired terminals can read basic status signals (e.g., ACC, power supply) per configuration—actual capability depends on wiring setup and project specifications.
Multi-Device Group Management
Organize devices by farm, cooperative, operation team, or equipment type.
