Claim 8:
9. A tracking device to be mounted on an asset, the tracking device comprising:
a non-transitory computer readable storage medium to store instructions; and
a processor coupled with the non-transitory computer readable storage medium to process the stored instructions to:
receive, from a management server, one or more pressure measurement thresholds;
monitor pressure measurements of the asset;
based on the pressure measurements, enter a non-passive mode of operation;
operate in the non-passive mode of operation, wherein to operate in the non-passive mode of operation includes to:
obtain first current location data at a first time;
determine whether the first current location data is different from previously transmitted location data;
transmit location data of the asset, including the first current location data, to the management server in response to determining that the first current location data is different from the previously transmitted location data;
store the first current location data as latest transmitted location data;
obtain second current location data at a second time that comes after the first time;
determine whether the second current location data is different from the latest transmitted location data; and
refrain from transmitting the second current location data to the management server in response to determining that the second current location data is not different from the latest transmitted location data;

determine new pressure measurements of the asset;
based on the new pressure measurements, enter a passive mode of operation; and
operate in the passive mode of operation, wherein no data is transmitted to or received from the management server.
