A positioning terminal for generating position information of an object being transported includes a radio frequency identification (RFID) module for storing status information of the object relative to at least two predefined locations, and a communication module for sending position information of the object to a control center. A controller reads the status information from the RFID module at predefined intervals, and controls activation of the communication module based on the status information.
