## The Black Hole of Transit
In traditional supply chains, visibility disappears the moment a truck leaves the loading dock. You know when it departed and when it arrived, but what happened in between? Did the refrigeration unit fail in transit? Was the cargo subjected to damaging shocks?
TagFinder Chain illuminates the black hole of transit.
## Continuous Mobile Monitoring
TagFinder Chain extends the power of the Wirepas mesh network onto the road. By equipping trucks or shipping containers with mobile gateways, CargoBeacon EverTags continue to stream live data to the TagFinder cloud from anywhere in the world.
### Total Transit Visibility:
- **Live GPS Tracking:** Monitor the exact location of your high-value shipments in real-time.
- **In-Transit Alerts:** Receive immediate notifications if temperature deviates or if a shock event occurs while the truck is on the highway, allowing drivers to take corrective action before cargo is lost.
- **Chain of Custody:** TagFinder creates an unbroken, immutable digital record of the shipment's environment from origin to destination.
## Seamless Dock-to-Dock Handoff
When a truck arrives at a TagFinder-equipped facility, the tags automatically seamlessly transition from the mobile gateway to the facility's fixed infrastructure, ensuring zero data loss during the critical unloading phase.
