DESCARTES Systems Group has announced that Cathay Cargo, a global provider of air freight services, has deployed Descartes' Bluetooth Low Energy air cargo tracking in the shipment of panda bears, reports Wisconsin's Aviation Pros.
This involved the real-time condition and location monitoring of giant pandas An An and Ke Ke as they were safely transported from Chengdu to Hong Kong.
'We're excited that our technology played a role in the safe arrival of such a special shipment from Chengdu to Hong Kong,' said Descartes vice president Frank Hung.
'With our advanced IoT-based tracking capabilities, our customers are not only able to monitor the location of their shipments in real-time, but also shipment conditions such as temperature, light, vibration and humidity - which takes on an even more important dimension for Cathay Cargo in this unique situation.'
Cathay Cargo has used the Descartes solution as part of its Ultra Track cargo tracking service since 2021.
The Descartes air cargo tracking solution is designed to help airlines and ground handling agents (GHA) provide forwarding and shipper customers with end-to-end shipment visibility.
