Executive Summary
Tracking devices operating across different countries often face network instability, which can lead to data loss. To solve this problem, a robust data logging solution was required to securely store tracking data until connectivity was restored.
Digital Dividend, a software development company, partnered on this project to design and develop a reliable embedded data logger capable of continuous data capture. The solution ensures that critical tracking information is never lost and can be accessed later for analysis, reporting, and system monitoring. The system was designed with scalability in mind, allowing future integration with IoT application development and data analytics solutions.
The Challenge
- Network availability varies across regions
- Tracking data must be stored without interruption
- Risk of data loss during offline periods
- Limited device memory and power constraints
- Compact hardware design required for tracking devices
