From Satellite Guesswork to Centimetre Certainty in Field Staff Tracking App Every minute an engineer is unaccounted for, power stays off, fibre repairs stall, or a cement pour waits. Traditional GPS drifts several metres, leaving dispatchers radio-hopping for updates. By fusing India’s NavIC satellites with Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radio, a modern field staff tracking app for managers returns live positions within 10 cm—about the width of a smartphone—so supervisors send the right crew to the right
Introduction: Why Offline Intelligence Matters for Field Force Automation Rural rollout of 4G/5G is improving, yet roughly 21,000 Indian villages remain off the grid, and even tier-one cities have basements, tunnels, and industrial zones where bars vanish. When a service engineer, sales rep, or surveyor loses signal, the effects ripple across scheduling, compliance, and customer satisfaction. Field force automation platforms that embed on-device AI—tiny machine-learning models running directly on the handset’s Neural Processing Unit (NPU)—solve
