Abstract

Systems and methods for locating collocated assets in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention, an asset tracking device includes a processor, a memory connected to the processor, and a communications device connected to the processor, wherein the processor obtains asset signal data, where the asset signal strength data includes asset data identifying an asset, calculates asset signal strength data based on the obtained asset signal data, and determines chained asset data based on the asset signal data and the asset signal strength data, where the chained asset data identifies a set of assets chained to a master asset associated with the asset tracking device.
