The ivTrack Evo is InVirtus's hybrid GPS and Bluetooth tracker for aviation assets: ground support equipment (GSE), engine stands, tooling and spare-parts containers that move between hangars, airports and repair sites. Its electromagnetic compatibility was tested by Emitech, an independent French laboratory, against the requirements of RTCA DO-160G, the environmental test standard for airborne equipment.
There is no single worldwide approval for a tracker carried on an aircraft. Two things are needed:
Several airlines and cargo carriers have already reviewed the ivTrack Evo and approved it for airworthiness. The full list of approving airlines is published on our ivTrack Evo airworthiness certification page.
InVirtus provides the ivTrack Evo DO-160G test report on request, so you can submit it to the carriers on your routes before deployment.

| Battery life | Up to 6 years, depending on reporting frequency |
| Protection | IP67 / IP68 |
| Alerts | Movement, shock and removal (anti-theft) |
| Aviation testing | RTCA DO-160G electromagnetic compatibility, tested by Emitech (France) |
Engine stands, test benches and ground support equipment often travel between maintenance sites in several countries. GPS follows them on the road and at airports; Bluetooth takes over once they are inside a hangar, so you keep one continuous view.
Dollies, tow bars, ground power units and stairs are easy to lose on a large apron. Geofences per stand or per area send an alert when equipment leaves its zone, and the history shows where it was last used.
Transport boxes for aircraft parts can be followed from the warehouse to the line, with alerts when they stop moving or leave an authorized area.
| Customer | Assets tracked | Technology |
|---|---|---|
| Airline maintenance (MRO) division | 500 engine-maintenance items and GSE | Hybrid GPS + BLE |
| Global aviation logistics provider | 150 items of equipment | Hybrid GPS + BLE |
| Aerospace parts manufacturer | 500 transport boxes with humidity and temperature sensors | GPS with sensors |
The ivTrack Evo was tested by the independent laboratory Emitech against the electromagnetic compatibility requirements of RTCA DO-160G. Acceptance on board remains the decision of each airline or cargo carrier; we provide the test report so you can submit it to them. The airlines that have already approved it are listed on our airworthiness certification page.
Yes. The ivTrack Evo uses GPS outdoors and Bluetooth Low Energy indoors, so an asset stays visible when it moves from the apron into a workshop.
Yes. Its eSIM covers more than 190 countries, which suits equipment shipped between maintenance sites worldwide.
Up to 6 years, depending on how many positions the tracker sends per day.
Yes. The InVirtus Cloud platform provides an API that sends positions, zone events and alerts to your maintenance, ERP or logistics systems.
