Workforce tracking solution for construction sites

Aether Workforce Tracking Solution

Real-time workforce visibility for construction and infrastructure sites, including live zone presence, attendance, movement history, and emergency-ready reporting.

The Problem

Why Workforce Tracking is Needed

Large construction and infrastructure projects have multiple active areas. Without a digital system, teams struggle to know where workers are, how they move across the site, and who is still inside restricted or enclosed zones.

No Live Visibility

Site teams cannot see which workers are in which zone during the shift.

Manual Attendance

Paper registers and verbal roll calls are slow, unreliable, and hard to verify.

No Zone Time Record

Teams cannot confirm whether workers stayed in assigned work areas or for how long.

Slow Emergency Response

During an accident, fire, or evacuation, manual headcount checks waste critical minutes.

Zone Compliance Gaps

There is no digital proof that staff or supervisors stayed in their assigned zones.

Physical Checking

Supervisors lose time walking zones and making radio calls for basic information.

Tunnel Blind Spots

Tunnels, shafts, basements, and covered zones need a safer way to confirm headcount.

Audit Records

HSE audits and incident reviews require documented proof of presence and movement.

How It Works

Simple Setup, Continuous Tracking

Each worker is assigned a small BLE ID beacon. Gateways placed across the site detect these beacon signals automatically. Staff or supervisors who move between locations can use the GH5200 personal tracker, which sends location data directly to the Aether Portal without needing a gateway.

1

Each Worker Gets a Beacon

A Teltonika EYE Beacon broadcasts a unique ID every few seconds with long battery life.

2

Gateways Cover Site Zones

Gateways scan for nearby beacon signals at entry gates, work areas, yards, and exits.

3

Entry and Exit is Logged

When a beacon appears or disappears near a gateway, zone entry, exit, and duration are recorded.

4

Data Reaches the Portal

The portal shows live zone presence, attendance records, and movement history.

5

No Manual Steps

As workers move between zones, the nearest gateway detects them automatically.

One Platform

Two Tracking Approaches

Both options work on the same Aether Portal. The right choice depends on whether the project needs zone-level visibility or full outdoor movement tracking similar to a track and trace system.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is a BLE-IoT powered tracking solution that shows worker attendance, zone presence, movement history, and safety visibility on the Aether Portal.

The solution uses Teltonika EYE Beacon, Teltonika FMB125 gateway, and optional Teltonika GH5200 personal GPS tracker.

The EYE Beacon gives zone-level tracking through fixed gateways. GH5200 is a personal GPS tracker that can show complete outdoor movement path without a fixed gateway.

No. GH5200 sends location data directly through its cellular SIM and is best for staff or supervisors moving between locations.

No. The beacon broadcasts a BLE ID. Zone location is calculated when nearby gateways detect that beacon.

Yes. The dashboard can show people counts, zone counts, active and inactive status, and attendance summaries.

Yes. Zone entry, exit, and duration can be logged whenever a beacon is detected or leaves a gateway zone.

Yes. Reports can be filtered by date and exported as CSV files for audits and internal reviews.

Yes. Beacon and gateway tracking can support tunnels and underground areas when gateways are placed at the right entry, exit, and internal points.

Yes. The setup can scale by adding more gateways and configuring additional zones in the portal.
