Asset Location Import 

The solution is designed to import GPS data into your FASTER Web system eliminating the need for manually entering location data for any given asset. Latitude and longitude data points are imported and pinned onto FASTER Web’s map so that users can easily track individual asset’s fixed location as well as the ignition status for assets to reveal where an asset is parked. (Please note this is not intended for bread-crumb trails or geo-fencing. It is intended to know where the asset is parked.)

(Using this solution would require that your vendor can provide the location data you desire in one of the many formats that this import can consume. For example, this solution can fetch location data from another vendor’s APIs if that vendor has SOAP based web services or RESTful based APIs or if your vendor can provide a flat file that conforms to the many formats this solution can consume.)
