Abstract
Disclosed are systems of positional tracking of a downhole projectile using a downhole monitoring tool. One downhole monitoring tool includes a body, at least one sensor arranged on the body and configured to detect a wellbore projectile, an indicator chamber defined in the body and configured to retain an indicator substance, and an actuation device operatively coupled to the indicator chamber and in communication with the at least one sensor, wherein, when the at least one sensor detects the wellbore projectile, a command signal is sent to the actuation device to actuate the indicator chamber and thereby release at least a portion of the indicator substance through an ejection port.
