1. A load and location tracking system installed on a wheeled platform, the system comprising:
a load monitor device installed at a first position on the wheeled platform, the first position being suitable for detecting load-related attributes that reflect the presence or absence of load on the wheeled platform, the load monitor configured to sense a set of load-related attributes and wirelessly transmit the load-related attributes in a first transmission; and
a location tracker device installed at a second position on the wheeled platform, the second position being suitable for providing RF communication and, the location tracker configured to wirelessly receive the first transmission, sense a set of location-related attributes and wirelessly transmit the load-related attributes taken from the first transmission, the location-related attributes and an identifier identifying the wheeled platform to an application,
wherein the application is configured to determine the location of the wheeled platform based on the location-related attributes, determine whether a load is present on the wheeled platform based on the load-related attributes, and provide the determined location and load status of the wheeled platform identified by the identifier to a user.
