Abstract: An example embodiment includes a method of employee activity and performance tracking. The method includes receiving data packets from a base station. The data packets include locational information pertaining to one or more employees. The method also includes calculating an event timeframe from the data packets. The event timeframe includes a start date/time of an event, an end date/time of the event, a location of the event, and an identification of one or more employees involved in the event. The method further includes refining the event timeframe and communicating the event timeframe to the one or more employees identified in the event timeframe. The method also includes receiving a designation by the one or more employees, the designation including details of the event. The method further includes storing the data packets, the event timeframe, and the designation.

Abstract: Operations in a livestock facility can be automated and made more efficient by utilizing an interrogator system that reads and writes data to tags associated with livestock. For instance, gates can be automated to sort livestock based on data read by interrogators from tags and livestock can be identified for examination when data suggest that their behavior deviates from expected or normal behavior. The tag associated with a livestock can carry and accumulate information across multiple facilities throughout the livestock production and processing cycle. Gathering information across facilities allows for more informed decision making and a more cooperative approach to improving the livestock production and processing cycle.
