A telemetric digital thermometer for use with a fluid transport container having internal and external shells. The telemetric digital thermometer includes a mount having a peripheral flange and a support collar, with the peripheral flange being connectable to the external shell. A temperature sensor sense a temperature of the internal shell. A thermometer insert may include an outer collar engageable with the peripheral flange, and an inner body engageable with the support collar. A GPS module may detect position of the thermometer insert. A wireless transceiver may transmit a signal including temperature data and position data. The thermometer insert and the mount may be collectively sized and structured such that the GPS module and the wireless transceiver are positioned radially outward of the external shell when the thermometer insert is connected to the mount and the mount is connected to the external shell.
