storing the second set of track identification data; and

generating a first tracking system track ID corresponding to the second tracking system track ID.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

in response to determining that the second set of track identification data does not describe the first track, transmitting the first set of track identification data to a remote computing device.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , further comprising:

receiving, from the remote computing device, a new global track ID corresponding to the first set of track identification data.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

displaying the global track ID on a coverage map.

8. A first tracking system, comprising:

a memory; and

one or more processors coupled to the memory and configured to:

monitor a first track, wherein each of the first track is associated with a first tracking system track ID and wherein the memory maintains a first set of track identification data corresponding to the first track;

receive (1) a second set of track identification data associated with a second track monitored by a second tracking system, wherein the second set of track identification data includes a second tracking system track ID, and (2) a global track ID corresponding to the second tracking system track ID;

compare the received second set of track identification data with the first set of track identification data to determine if the second set of track identification data describes the first track; and

in response to determining that the second set of track identification data describes the first track, associating the global track ID with the first tracking system track ID.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

in response to determining that the second set of track identification data describes the first track, associate the second set of track identification data with the first tracking system track ID.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

notify a remote computing device of the association of the second set of track identification data with the first tracking system track ID, wherein the notification includes a first tracking system track ID to global track ID pairing.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to, in response to determining that the second set of track identification data does not describe the first track:

store the second set of track identification data; and

generate a first tracking system track ID corresponding to the second tracking system track ID.

12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

in response to determining that the second set of track identification data does not describe the first track, transmit the first set of track identification data to a remote computing device.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

receive, from the remote computing device, a new global track ID corresponding to the first set of track identification data.

14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

display the global track ID on a coverage map.

15. A non-transitory tangible computer-readable device having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by at least one computing device, causes the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising:

monitoring, by a first tracking system, a first track, wherein the first tracking system associates the first track with a first tracking system track ID and wherein the first tracking system maintains a first set of track identification data corresponding to the first track;

receiving, at the first tracking system, (1) a second set of track identification data associated with a second track monitored by a second tracking system, wherein the second set of track identification data includes a second tracking system track ID, and (2) a global track ID corresponding to the second tracking system track ID;

comparing the received second set of track identification data with the first set of track identification data to determine if the second set of track identification data describes the first track; and

in response to determining that the second set of track identification data describes the first track, associating the global track ID with the first tracking system track ID.

16. The computer-readable device of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:

in response to determining that the second set of track identification data describes the first track, associating the second set of track identification data with the first tracking system track ID.

17. The computer-readable device of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:

notifying a remote computing device of the association of the second set of track identification data with the first tracking system track ID, wherein the notification includes a first tracking system track ID to global track ID pairing.

18. The computer-readable device of claim 15 , the operations further comprising, in response to not identifying a matching monitored track based on the second set of track identification data:

storing the second set of track identification data; and

generating a first tracking system track ID corresponding to the second tracking system track ID.

19. The computer-readable device of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:

in response to determining that the second set of track identification data does not describe the first track, transmitting the first set of track identification data to a remote computing device.
