Tuesday, 01.29.2008, 02:40pm (GMT)
Navman Wireless North America
has released the next generation of its vehicle tracking and logistics
software, OnlineAVL2. A successor to the company's Online AVL1, which
provides fleet managers with vehicle position and activity details, and
a key component of the complete Navman Wireless solution, the new
OnlineAVL2 integrates new ways for businesses to view the location of
their assets and more accurately address issues for their drivers and
customers, according to the company.
Providing fleet managers with a more photorealistic view of their
drivers' actual surroundings, the new OnlineAVL2 employs
high-resolution satellite imagery and high aerial photography. In
addition to traditional street-level mapping views, the new Navman
Wireless software now supports several hybrid mapping display options
with views including street-level mapping, top-down satellite imagery
with street and street name overlay, or satellite imagery only. Each
option accurately displays the position of assets according to their
current GPS location, and provides a clearer picture of roadways,
structures and parking areas, to name a few, in relation to the
vehicle. An intuitive popup window allows fleet managers to zoom in on
a vehicle for greater detail without losing the rest of the surrounding
map.
"Our new OnlineAVL2 is the result of significant customer feedback,
millions in R&D and several years of development," said Renaat Ver
Eecke, vice president — Navman Wireless North America. "These
enhancements, coupled with the software's existing extensive range of
features, makes our fleet management offering the most complete and
cost effective solution on the market."
Additional features of OnlineAVL2 include: unlimited two-way messaging
to one, some, or all vehicles from an office desktop; fully integrated
navigation functionality for drivers; comprehensive real-time and
historical vehicle/driver activity reporting; Driver ID technology for
differentiating individual activity with shared assets; programmable
alerts for vehicle speed, idle time, unauthorized movement, and
security breach; and polygonal geofence functionality for defining
driver territories.
