2211 FreightWatch Security Net, a provider of embedded cargo and portable surveillance tracking solutions, has received FCC 47 CFR Part 15, Subpart B certification for its Geo F2 'Pill Bottle' location tracker, the first commercial-class 213 Qualcomm inGeo platform-based product.

The Geo F2 is an industrial strength, assisted-GPS tracking product incorporating Qualcomm QSC6055 module technology. With a small pig-tail battery option attached, it can be hidden in a pill bottle, or equally small enclosure, enabling a variety of new covert tracking solutions. With a large-capacity lithium-polymer battery option, the Geo F2 unit can also be deployed in rapid reporting, law enforcement surveillance situations or long-term (more than a year) remote asset location assurance applications.

Combined with the optional integrated Zigbee radio receiver, the Geo F2 becomes a remote, battery-powered sensor data collection and transmission platform.

    High-speed weigh-in-motion is starting to make its mark on both sides of the Atlantic. As a transit country the Czech Republic experiences a large number of overloaded vehicles, which greatly increase highway maintenance costs. This prompted its Transport Ministry to trial an extension of the capabilities of the existing truck tolling system to allow the dynamic high-speed weighing of cargo vehicles. In effect the tolling enforcement gantries become weigh-in-motion (WIM) locations.

Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) are increasingly a building block for ITS applications from road user charging and E-call to tracking & tracing of freight. Even while the European Space Agency is still assembling the Galileo constellation, EGNOS (the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) is already providing the basis of a range of ser
