Systems and methods for beacon device fleet management are provided. One example system includes a plurality of beacon devices, a plurality of mobile computing devices, a fleet management system, and a fleet owner computing devices. One example method includes receiving, by the fleet management system, a device status request from the fleet owner computing device. The fleet management system determines one or more operational statuses of beacon devices owned by the fleet owner and transmits data indicative of the one or more operational statuses to the fleet owner computing device. The operational statuses can include a current detection status (e.g., online or offline), a location status, a power source status, and/or other operational parameters.

Systems and methods for beacon device fleet management

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage medium for implementing the advertisement of device status information. In one aspect, configuration data for the second device is obtained, where the configuration data indicating a current operating mode of the second device or a user-specified configuration of the second device. The stored radio transmitter identifier is accessed from the one or more data storage devices. A first advertisement that indicates the radio transmitter address and the radio transmitter identifier is generated. A second advertisement is generated that indicates the radio transmitter address and an encoding of the configuration data for the second device. Using the radio transmitter, a series of advertisements that includes at least the first advertisement and the second advertisement is broadcasted.
