Trailer yard tracking
Trailer yard tracking is live visibility of where each trailer sits — spot, zone, staging lane, or at door — on a digital yard map tied to the visit record. Yard jockeys and leads assign moves without radio calls and spreadsheet audits.
Yard map
Map, spots, and zones
The yard map is the operational canvas: inbound staging, outbound staging, overflow, and pre-dock lanes. Each spot shows occupancy and conflicts. Move instructions update when dock assigns a door or overflow opens.

Yard tracking vs over-the-road GPS
Highway GPS shows in-transit ETAs. Trailer yard tracking starts at gate-in — where the trailer waits on your concrete, how long it dwells, and when it moves to the door. Both integrate at appointment and closeout on a connected yard platform.
