[Xastir] An idea rfid > APRS?

[Jason KG4WSV]

I had a similar idea.  Mine was a two part system; one was a field
deployed unit with APRS, GPS, and RFID scanner to create objects.  The
second was a server elsewhere on the net to take ownership of those
objects; the server would have database backing to provide more
information about the object/RFID tag.

A unit in the field could scan an asset.  the server would note the
scan, possibly take ownership of the object, and change its type and
comment field to indicate more info.  For example, a truck, container,
or pallet pre-loaded with disaster recovery supplies would be entered
in the database.  It would be scanned at deployment/dropoff and its
location marked with the APRS interface.
