Abstract
In a method for determining an unreported event status change for an asset, an asset management system receives a position of an asset from a reporting source coupled with the asset. The position is associated with a particular time by the reporting source. The position is compared to a previous position of the asset, the previous position being associated with a previous time that is earlier than the particular time. Based upon the comparing of the position to the previous position, it is determined if an unreported event status change has occurred for the asset.
