Location System (RFID)

Utilising existing wireless networks within a company, Gaia Technologies’ Location System provides management with an effective tool that;

 
  • Enables automatic clocking in
  • Restricts access to parts of the customer’s premises through Access Control
  • Tracks and locates staff throughout the day, restricting access to secure areas of a building such as stores
  • Tracks and locates assets, enabling effective Asset Management

How the Location System works

Similar technology is used by health authorities for tracking patients and assets, in tracking animals’ origin and genetic history, in logistics such as pallet tracking, and in e-passports which makes airport queuing is a thing of the past. At one end, a tag is either;

  • Worn as a badge by a member of staff or
  • Is installed internally within an item of equipment that is moved frequently e.g. pda or laptop.

At the other end a web based interface provides management with an effective tool for tracking and controlling the location and position of staff, and for allowing which areas they are allowed to access.

Benefits for the business sector

  • Enhanced health and safety; shows whether a member of staff is in a building or has left the premises.
  • Improved security; hazardous areas e.g. laboratories can have restricted access.
  • Reduced theft of portable assets.
  • Tracking; assets are effectively tracked.
  • Effective asset deployment; your Asset Management records are immediately updated with information on location of key assets, allowing you to accomplish more effective logistics and usage.
