Abstract: Systems and methods are described for enforcing consistency of data between disparate systems of a transportation network with verified transactions. Embodiments include receiving a transaction that is generated based on a command indicating an intent to transfer an asset from the originating hub to a destination hub. The generated transaction can include a sender identifier associated with the originating hub, an asset identifier associated with the asset, and a detected location of the asset. The received transaction is communicated to any node of the plurality of nodes that are configured store it onto a distributed ledger based on a determined verification that the included detected location corresponds to a location associated with the included sender identifier.

Abstract: Systems and methods for tracking the location of an asset may utilize wireless asset beacons broadcasting asset information/data and powered asset beacons secured relative to movable powered assets. The powered asset beacons may be configured to receive signals transmitted from the asset beacons and to ascertain a relative location between the asset beacon and the powered asset to determine an estimated location of the asset. Moreover, the asset beacons may be selectively activated based on the occurrence of a trigger event, such that the asset beacons do not wireless transmit information/data when it is desirable to limit wireless data transmissions.

Abstract translation: 用于追踪资产位置的系统和方法可以利用无线资产信标，广播资产信息/数据以及相对于可移动动力资产保护的动力资产信标。 动力资产信标可以被配置为接收从资产信标传输的信号并且确定资产信标和动力资产之间的相对位置以确定资产的估计位置。 此外，可以基于触发事件的发生来选择性地激活资产信标，使得资源信标在期望限制无线数据传输时不会无线传输信息/数据。
