Abstract
A technique is directed to transporting data storage equipment. The technique involves electronically activating monitoring circuitry which is co-located with the data storage equipment. The technique further involves, after the monitoring circuitry is electronically activated, receiving location data from the monitoring circuitry while the data storage equipment is en route from a first ground location to a second ground location. The technique further involves, based on the location data, performing a set of location evaluation operations to determine whether the data storage equipment is on course along a predefined route between the first ground location and the second ground location.
