Abstract: Techniques for physical event management while tracking physical assets are disclosed. In one aspect, data identifying locations of interest in a journey of an asset is received. A position fix for the asset is received and a determination is made that the asset is within a location of interest. In another aspect, data identifying one or more milestones in a journey of the asset is received. An event notification is received from a tag coupled to the asset, and it is determined that there is a problem in the shipment of the asset. In yet another aspect, data identifying one or more actions that should be taken after events of interest in a journey of the asset is received. An event notification is received from a tag coupled to the asset, and it is determined that a particular action should be taken.

Abstract: Techniques for tracking physical assets are described. In one aspect, input indicating that an asset has been loaded on a conveyance is received. When a tag attached to the asset is unable to transmit position fix data describing a location of the asset to a server, alternative position fix data (e.g., from the conveyance or another tag coupled to another asset on the conveyance) is used to indicate the position of the asset and tag. In another aspect, a relay component is used to receive the tag position fix data from the tag and forward it to the server.
