Does anyone have experience connecting Caterpillar equipment using CAT Product Link with Geoevent Processor.  It would be nice to track our equipment in our GIS maps, but I dont see any information on how CAT product link could connect.

Hi Cameron, 

At this time there is no CAT-specific connector that interfaces with GeoEvent Server, however you still may have luck reaching the underlying data. Do you know what format the data is in (JSON, XML, NMEA, etc) as well as how it's being transmitted (HTTP, TCP, WebSocket, etc)? Many times with specific applications GeoEvent Server can still interpret the data and yield the results you're looking for, it just may take some manipulation to do it.
