Replay an Asset's Location History with Game Tape

3 min read

What is this?

Game Tape replays how one asset moved. It uses the dates of the asset Location History, up to 7 days. The asset moves on the map, and its trail shows the speed.

The Location History map shows where the asset stopped. Game Tape also shows how it moved between the stops.

Who's this for?

  • Equipment managers, check where and how fast a machine worked.
  • Dispatchers, confirm when a truck left the yard and when it arrived on site.
  • Project managers, check the movement of one machine on the job.

How to use it

Step 1: Open the asset's Location History

Open the asset details, for example from Track Everything or Organization > Assets. In the Location section, click See All Locations.
