The Extronics Location Engine (ELE) software utilises hybrid location technology to provide “dot on a map” for visualisation platforms, reducing infrastructure requirements. Features Utilises a variety of location and connectivity technologies for increased flexibility Leverage hybrid technology and use with iTAG X-Range of worker safety and asset tags Comprehensive API for use with your preferred visualisation platform Easily deploy hardware using the site manager app When used with iTAG X-Range of worker safety tags, Extronics’ Location Engine (ELE) determines the tag location using a proprietary algorithm which includes GPS, RSSI trilateration (Wi-Fi sniffing and BLE), and LF location data. The ELE can gather this tag data from various connectivity technologies such as Wi-Fi, LoRa or Cellular (Hardware dependant) to suit the clients infrastructure requirements. The ELE uses its advanced decision making algorithm to accurately locate workers or assets anywhere on site. Using Hybrid technology, the ELE increases the accuracy of location data. For example, indoor spaces, such as processing areas with high metallic structures, can be configured as hybrid zones to prioritise the use of Wi-Fi and BLE data, over GPS data. Battery powered BLE beacons can be easily added to a site to enhance the positional accuracy without installing cabling to more APs/Gateways. In outdoor environments, such as tank farms or storage yards, the use of GPS technology would be more appropriate meaning fewer Wi- Fi APs or LoRaWAN gateways are required as they are only used for connectivity.
