November, 2009 - Success Stories - Tracking Assets with RFIDThe District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority deployed radio frequency identification (RFID) using OnComm Rocket mobile wireless gateway’s optional RFID receiver. The device gathers data from tags on tools and inventory onboard service vehicles and transmits the data back to headquarters, where it’s fed into an array of applications. Wayne Steeves, an advanced technologies consultant to the authority said “Other solutions were more expensive, and the Rocket allows more media and carrier independence than the others,” Steeves says. “With the Rocket, there’s no complexity for field personnel, which was important, and it enables WASA to have wide area wireless networking.”
