What is specification data?
Specification data is information that you add to describe the asset that your device is attached to. This includes name, asset type, model, production year and serial number. Filling in these specifications will enrich the metadata and make your data analytics more powerful.
What does the Metadata score show me?
The average metadata score on your Fleet Home shows you how big a percentage of your devices that have specification data filled in. It includes all machines, equipment, attachments, and tools in your fleet.
The higher the score the closer you are to maximizing the benefits of more powerful and flexible fleet-wide analytics in the Trackunit platform.
To improve a low metadata score, fill in any missing information under the specification tab of your devices - keep reading to find out how!
