In Vehicle Equipment 
Each vehicle
is fitted with a tracking device that determines the position of
the vehicle with great accuracy. The position fix is commonly obtained
via the Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites.
Tracking units
can also provide messaging functionality. This is typically used
in dispatch or e-mail applications. The sophistication of the hardware
used varies from simple two line text display through to full Windows
based remote computing.
Digital Maps
Our program
includes mapping software displaying detailed street information
throughout the United States and Canada. Drill down ability enables
high quality, real time information about where your assets are
located. This real-time data can later be downloaded and gathered
into very useful reports.
Database
The choice of
database platform is dependent on the size of the tracking system.
For small systems, a PC based database is appropriate. Larger customers
require a database server either on Windows NT or Unix, and possibly
replicated servers at remote sites. Usually the database platform
and operating systems are selected to allow integration with other
Information Technology systems already in use within the company.
Other Features

system provides you with one-stop services. The service will assist
you in reducing operating cost and time to delivery. It will also
increase performance and the value-add of transportation services.
