Members of the Australian Fleet Managers Association (AFMA) are the latest to take advantage of the technology offered by MapData Sciences (MDS), with a range of fleet tracking reports available.
MDS uses GPS tracking of members’ vehicles to provide delivery reports based on the time of day goods are dropped off, allowing fleet managers to identify slow points and hold ups.
Members are also able to access a ‘foundation map’, which allows fleet managers and dispatchers to build routes using the latest road system rather than updating the maps themselves.
The maps cover all of Australia and New Zealand in a consistent scale, with a web standard tile structure designed for internal and external public web use.
