SWTRACK: An intelligent model for cargo tracking based on off-the-shelf mobile devices

► We propose a model named SWTRACK, that allows logistic companies to monitor vehicle fleets and cargo in a secure way. ► SWTRACK presents an automatic travel management to initialize and finish travels without user interaction. ► SWTRACK provides a mechanism to continuously monitor detours in planned routes through Geofence techniques. ► We created an alerts mechanism, that allows to send notifications, in realtime, whenever some predefined situations occur. ► We provide an impact analysis regarding GPS precision and battery power consumption.
