Casper Data Interface Standard

New Gatwick Airport Policy

NEW POLICY AT GATWICK

Fleet Compliance at Gatwick

A new policy requires all vehicles, motorised equipment, and nominated assets operated at Gatwick Airport to be equipped with approved Geo Tagging and Telematics systems. For motorised vehicles, the system must include driver identification via swipe-in to enable access control, detect unauthorised use, and support auditing and user management.

Casper is a data management interface standard that can be used for geo tagging and telematics by providing a way to store and manage data. This data is then stored providing a tamper-proof and immutable record of the location and movements of assets or vehicles. The added security ensures that the data is protected from any unauthorised access. This makes Casper a powerful solution for managing location based data in industries such as transportation and logistics.

According to London Gatwick Airport’s new regulation, all vehicles will be required to keep thorough records of their position and movements. The policy applies to all eligible vehicles operated by the operator, regardless of whether the vehicles are owned or leased from a supplier or are in service through other means. The policy must be followed regardless of length of service.
Companies can use Casper to ensure that their location-based data is tamper-proof and that they meet these compliance requirements.
