Property Types
Every property attached to your assets has a type.
This describes the kind of information you'd like to store in the property. It also controls how ARDI (and its various clients) display the information to you.
It's pointless showing you the GPS coordinates of an asset as raw coordinates - but ARDI can instead show you the location of the item on a map.
