PRODUCTION INFORMATION

• Modularity: Yes; adhesive seals, magnetic pucks, fired darts, tow-hook clamps, cargo labels, droid socket tabs, and evidence-tag variants vary by assignment.
• Production: Mass-Produced
• Material: Microtransmitter, sensor beacon components, homing beacon components, adhesive pad, magnetic clamp, dart casing, miniature power cell, plasteel housing, tamper seal, encrypted signal chip

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Short-to-medium range tracking marker.
• Adhesive, magnetic, dart, clamp, cargo-label, and droid-socket variants.
• Custody ping linked to officer datapads, patrol speeders, tracking fobs, and facility consoles.
• Tamper alarm for removal, crushing, signal shielding, or casing breach.
• Disposable issue for broad use during seizure work.
• Evidence-tag mode for cargo, crates, seized property, forged documents, and impound assets.
• Vehicle marker mode for speeders, cargo sleds, tow targets, and suspect craft.

STRENGTHS

• Asset Tracking: Officers can mark vehicles, cargo, droids, suspects, forged documents, and seized property during disputes or breach events.
• Flexible Attachment: Multiple variants allow placement on hull plates, cargo seals, droid sockets, clothing, tow hooks, crates, and vehicle frames.
• Custody Record Support: Pings, tamper alerts, and movement logs help connect claimants, stolen property, hidden garages, chop shops, and escape routes.
• Cheap Deployment: Mass issue lets recovery teams carry multiple markers for chaotic tow-yard work and impound raids.

WEAKNESS

• Signal and Maintenance Burden: Interference, damage, dead batteries, and poor upkeep reduce tracking, alerts, and custody records.

DESCRIPTION
The Tow-Tag Surveillance Marker is a small tracking and custody marker issued to Authority Compliance Enforcement Officers. It marks vehicles, cargo, droids, suspects, forged documents, and seized property during impound disputes, tow-yard calls, breach events, and recovery operations.

The marker comes in adhesive, magnetic, dart, clamp, cargo-label, and droid-socket variants. Officers use it to follow a fleeing speeder, track a disputed crate, mark a stolen loader droid, secure a forged claim packet, or monitor property released under watch.

The marker supports the Authority's preferred response: tag the asset, log the movement, follow the route, and add the evidence to the case file.
