Material Tracking with IoT

Overview

This skill implements IoT-based material tracking systems for construction projects. Track materials from procurement to installation using sensors, RFID tags, GPS, and connected devices.

Tracking Capabilities:

• Delivery tracking (GPS)
• Inventory management (RFID)
• Storage conditions (temperature, humidity sensors)
• Usage monitoring (weight sensors, counters)
• Waste tracking
