Personnel and Asset Positioning

The production environment in oil refineries and chemical companies is complex and involves a variety of flammable, explosive, and toxic chemical substances. Precise positioning of personnel and equipment in real time is key to ensure efficient and safe production. It has been difficult for communication solutions to meet this requirement as the GPS, BDS and other satellite signals are often blocked by various facilities in the production area.

In response to this situation, Hytera developed the personnel and asset positioning solution, based on high-precision BT positioning technology that can achieve meter-level positioning accuracy. The explosion proof, battery-powered beacon point can be deployed quickly in hazardous locations without the need of wiring. This solution has been designed with safe and efficient production in mind and this is reflective in its features, such as asset positioning, geofencing alarm, visitor management, and more.
