A geo-converged telemetry (GCT) system is described that provides an exchange of geographically-relevant telemetry data amongst various vehicles, devices, and systems for providing a holistic view of a geographic area. Telemetry data from various sources may be continually collected and transmitted to a nearby node of a GCT system, where the data may be converged based on geolocation and processed. The same and / or other vehicles, devices, and systems may operate as telemetry consumers that receive feeds of geo-converged telemetry data that may be tailored to functionalities of the consumer. As a vehicle moves, data that are determined to be geographically-relevant changes. The location of the processing may move from one processing node to another processing node in the edge network such that the processing is located proximate to the vehicle to minimize latency and provide real time or near-real time feedback based on a holistic view of the geographic area.

An object tracking device, such as may be attached to a trailer to track movements of the trailer, may have various communication capabilities, such as cellular / LTE, Wi-Fi and GPS, which each have varying power requirements. A power optimization routine determines which communications should be performed to conserve battery while also providing frequent location updates. The routine determines if another plugged in tracking device is within low power Bluetooth (BLE) range and, if so, communications location via that device. If not, a Wi-Fi scan is performed and a lookup table is consulted for the corresponding location of any identified Wi-Fi access points. If location data cannot be found for an identified Wi-Fi access point, GPS location of the device is determined and the lookup table is updated to include the GPS location of the Wi-Fi access point.
