Overview
The ToolWatch Map displays asset and gateway location data collected from active GPS trackers, battery-powered GPS Gateways, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) tags, and mobile barcode scans. Each scan and device type is represented by a specific icon and color-coded outline to help you quickly assess location accuracy and data freshness.
Scan Types and Data Freshness
GPS Scans: Captured automatically from active GPS trackers assigned to assets and displayed as crosshair icons.
GPS Gateways: Battery-powered devices that detect nearby Bluetooth tags and report locations to ToolWatch; displayed as distinct gateway icons.
Bluetooth (BLE) Scans: Captured from BLE tags when scanned using a mobile device with location sharing enabled; displayed as crosshair icons.
Barcode Scans: Captured during mobile app scan actions (such as Transfers, Search, Service Requests, or Equipment Usage) with location sharing enabled; displayed as barcode icons.
Fresh Data (0–24 Hours): Represented by a green icon outline on the map.
Stale Data (30+ Days): Represented by a light gray icon outline on the map.
