Container Tracking and Monitoring

ORBCOMM customers depend on the real-time data offered by our intermodal asset and container tracking tracking solutions for complete end-to-end fleet visibility and control.

Whether for monitoring dry, refrigerated or tank containers, or for supporting equipment such as chassis and gensets, users can better manage their transport assets, reduce operating, M&R, fuel and inspection costs, increase fleet utilization, improve regulatory and customer compliance, and identify priority issues for rapid response.
