Yunnan Jianglin Chemical Visitor Location
I. Project Background
Yunnan Jianglin Group is located in Jiangchuan District, Yuxi City, Yunnan Province, in the heart of central Yunnan—a region renowned as the “Highland Water Town” and the “Charm of Ancient Dian.” As a national Class II enterprise that centers on phosphate chemical products and integrates research, production, and trade, it is not only a key national chemical enterprise but also ranks among the Top 500 Chinese chemical companies in terms of economic performance.
However, the unique production environment of enterprises presents numerous challenges. The plant premises house large quantities of flammable, explosive, toxic, and highly corrosive substances, while the manufacturing processes involve hazardous conditions such as high temperatures and high pressures. The complex facility layout and the wide variety of dangerous materials make it difficult to accurately monitor and manage personnel density. Moreover, the lack of effective detection and predictive tools means that potential safety hazards are often overlooked or inadequately addressed, resulting in reduced operational efficiency and placing employees’ personal safety under severe strain.
II. Project Objectives
To address the aforementioned challenges, Yunnan Jianglin Group has implemented our company’s “Chemical Personnel Location Management System,” which is based on distributed Bluetooth positioning technology. The system aims to ensure personnel safety by accurately tracking visitors and employees within the plant premises, mitigate potential production risks, achieve efficient facility management, and advance the plant’s digital transformation.
III. Project Implementation Plan
(1) Selection of Positioning Technology
By adopting integrated indoor-outdoor Bluetooth positioning technology, which combines the advantages of both indoor and outdoor positioning, this solution can adapt to the complex and ever-changing environment of industrial parks, providing reliable Technical Support for precise positioning.
(II) Beacon Deployment
Our company’s specialized team conducts on-site surveys within the factory premises, and based on factors such as the plant’s architectural layout, the distribution of production areas, and staff movement patterns, we scientifically plan and deploy Bluetooth Beacons on site. This ensures comprehensive and stable Beacon signal coverage, providing a solid foundation for personnel positioning.
(3) Equipment Provisioning for Positioning
All personnel within the plant premises, including visitors, are equipped with badge-based locators. These locators are compact and lightweight, comfortable to wear, and do not interfere with normal work activities. Once worn, they can communicate in real time with deployed Bluetooth Beacons, enabling precise positioning with an accuracy of 5 to 8 meters.
IV. Functional Applications and Outcomes
(1) Real-time personnel positioning within the plant area
Function Description: System administrators can use the web‑based or mobile management platform to view the real-time location of all personnel within the facility. The map clearly displays each individual’s position, enabling managers to track staff movements at any time.
Results: During production, managers can leverage real-time personnel locations to optimize workforce allocation, ensuring adequate staffing and balanced distribution across all process stages. For example, during peak equipment maintenance periods, idle staff in nearby areas can be quickly reassigned to provide support, reducing maintenance downtime by [X]%, thereby significantly boosting overall production efficiency.
(II) Trajectory Playback
Function Description: The system automatically records users’ historical movement trajectories, which managers can retrieve and view at any time. The trajectory playback feature supports filtering by time, user, and other criteria, facilitating post‑event reviews and incident investigations.
Results: During an investigation into a safety incident, the trajectory‑replay feature enabled management to swiftly reconstruct the movements of all personnel involved at the time of the accident, providing critical leads for analyzing the root cause. This reduced the time required to resolve the incident by [X]%, effectively preventing similar accidents from recurring.
(3) Regional Population Statistics
Function Description: The system dynamically tracks the number of personnel in each area and displays the data on the management platform in an intuitive graphical format. Based on these regional headcount statistics, managers can effectively allocate tasks and optimize staff deployment.
Results: In high‑density areas such as warehouses and packaging workshops, management personnel can promptly monitor changes in headcount using the area‑based occupancy tracking feature. When a particular zone becomes overcrowded, staff can quickly redirect some workers to other areas, thereby mitigating safety risks associated with excessive concentration and enhancing operational efficiency. According to statistics, after implementing this functionality, productivity in these high‑density zones improved by [X]%.
(4) Intrusion Alarm for Hazardous Areas
Function Description: For hazardous areas within the plant, such as chemical storage zones and high‑temperature, high‑pressure equipment areas, the system deploys electronic fences. If an unauthorized person enters these zones, the system immediately triggers an alarm and displays the intruder’s location and relevant information on the management platform.
Results: Since the system went live, it has successfully prevented [X] unauthorized entries into hazardous areas. By triggering timely alerts, management personnel have been able to swiftly take action to evacuate individuals from these areas, thereby averting potential safety incidents and ensuring the personal safety of employees.
(5) Emergency Assistance
Function Description: The badge‑mounted locator is equipped with a one‑button emergency assistance feature. In the event of an emergency—such as a sudden illness or encountering danger—users can simply press the button to send an alert to management, along with their current location.
Results: During an incident in which an employee suddenly fell ill, the employee promptly triggered the one‑tap emergency assistance feature to send a distress signal. Upon receiving the alert, management immediately used the location data to rush to the scene and swiftly transported the employee to a hospital for treatment, thereby gaining precious time to safeguard the employee’s life.
(6) Safety Management
Function Description: The system provides data visualization and statistical analysis capabilities, enabling in-depth analysis of personnel positioning data, alarm data, and other relevant information. Based on the analysis results, management personnel can develop targeted safety management measures and optimize the plant’s safety management processes.
Results: Through data analysis, management identified a specific area where personnel activity was particularly frequent during certain time periods, posing significant safety risks. In response, they promptly adjusted the frequency and routing of safety patrols in that area, thereby strengthening safety management. Following implementation, the incidence of safety incidents in the area decreased by [X]%, effectively enhancing the plant’s overall safety management performance.
V. Project Summary
By implementing a “Chemical Industry Personnel Positioning Management System,” Yunnan Jianglin Group has successfully addressed the challenges of visitor and personnel tracking within its plant premises, ensuring worker safety, mitigating potential production risks, enhancing operational efficiency and management standards, and advancing the facility’s digital transformation. The successful deployment of this project provides valuable lessons and practical guidance for personnel safety management in the chemical industry.
