Abstract: A system having a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver having a GNSS receiver battery receptacle for housing a battery therein, and a handheld receptacle which has an insertion portion which is shaped as an outer portion of the battery and which is adapted for insertion into the battery receptacle of the GNSS receiver instead of the battery, wherein the handheld receptacle has a handheld receptacle battery receptacle to receive the battery therein. The battery can be swapped from the GNSS receiver and the handheld receptacle. A socket can be provided on the handheld receptacle for mounting a computing device thereon in communication with the GNSS receiver. A pole-mount adapter can be used for connecting the GNSS receiver onto a pole below the GNSS battery receptacle and can be mounted and dismounted even when the handheld receptacle is inserted in the GNSS receiver.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for nanosatellite-based property monitoring are disclosed. A method includes receiving satellite data related to conditions of a property monitored by a monitoring system; determining, based on the satellite data, that the property is at risk from a threat; requesting, from a sensor of the monitoring system, sensor data related to the threat; receiving, from the sensor, the sensor data related to the threat; and based on analyzing the sensor data related to the threat, performing one or more monitoring system actions. The threat may include one of a weather hazard, a security hazard, or a property damage hazard. The monitoring system actions can include sending an instruction to adjust a sensor or component of the monitoring system and can include sending, to a user device, a notification that the property is at risk from the threat.

Abstract: A system for tagging and tracking assets anywhere in the world under any environmental condition. Geo-Referencing Identification (GRID) tag, GRID satellite (GRIDSAT) tag and associated cloud infrastructure and user interface meet the objectives of a robust global tagging and tracking system. The GRID tag can be used to identify pieces of equipment or storage containers for low-value or aggregate equipment. GRID tags communicate with each other using a mesh radio in each tag. The GRIDSAT tag consists of a satellite modem, global positioning system (GPS) receiver, and mesh radio and can be used by itself for high-value items, large shipping containers, or vehicles and vessels to track and locate them, or used in concert with GRID tags that communicate with each other and with the GRIDSAT tag by means of mesh radio.

Abstract: An approach is disclosed that receives a wireless request from a proximity key that is used to access a vehicle. The wireless request includes a key-GPS that is a set of Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) coordinates that correspond to the proximity key. A vehicle-GPS is retrieved at the vehicle with the vehicle-GPS being a set of GPS coordinates that correspond to the vehicle. A distance between the proximity key and the vehicle based is calculated on a difference between the key-GPS and the vehicle-GPS. The approach then determines whether to perform the request based on the calculated distance.
