Title
An asset management system based on RFID, WebGIS and SMS
Abstract
In this paper, we propose an asset management system using technologies of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Web Geographic Information System (WebGIS) and Short Message Service (SMS) for intelligent management of assets. The proposed method tracks and monitors the changes of locations of the assets and shows their statuses on a geographical map, preventing the loss of assets due to unclear reasons. The movement of assets can be automatically identified using the RFID technique. The corresponding data are transferred by the GSM module in real time, enabling the spatial information of assets to be displayed on an electronic geographical map using WebGIS. The proposed method also facilitates automated notification of asset movement and malfunction alarm through SMS. Preliminary experiments show that the proposed method can improve information availability of assets and reduce asset management cost dramatically.
