    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for asset travel monitoring are provided. An example method for asset travel monitoring involves monitoring a motion sensor of an asset tracking device located at an asset to determine whether the asset has entered into a travelling state, upon determination that the asset has entered into the travelling state, monitoring the motion sensor to determine whether the asset has left the travelling state, and, upon determination that the asset has left the travelling state, obtaining a present location of the asset tracking device and transmitting the present location to a remote server.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for temperature-dependent charging of supercapacitor energy storage units of asset tracking devices are provided. An example method for temperature-dependent charging involves obtaining a temperature reading measured at an asset tracking device, the asset tracking device located at an asset to monitor travel of the asset, determining a target voltage for a supercapacitor energy storage unit of the asset tracking device based on the temperature reading to balance utilization of a capacity of the supercapacitor energy storage unit against temperature-dependent deterioration of the supercapacitor energy storage unit, and controlling a charging interface of the asset tracking device to charge the supercapacitor energy storage unit to the target voltage.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for monitoring asset tracking devices that travel together are provided. An example method for monitoring asset tracking devices that travel together involves obtaining a first travel history of a first asset tracking device, obtaining a second travel history of a second asset tracking device, determining, based on the first and second travel histories, whether the first asset tracking device and the second asset tracking device travel together, and, upon determination that the first asset tracking device and the second asset tracking device travel together, linking the first asset tracking device and the second asset tracking device together in an asset tracking database to indicate that the first asset tracking device and the second asset tracking device travel together.
