Abstract
A computer system includes a memory and a processor. The processor executes instructions to perform steps that include receiving a message from an asset tracking device, the message comprising position information for the asset tracking device and a traffic control device type for a traffic control device that the asset tracking device is attached to. The processor uses the received message to determine a road that the traffic control device is positioned on and a location of the traffic control device along the road.
