Places Helps Carriers Overcome Excessive Dwell Times
Our Places database of geofenced locations plays a critical role in providing the transportation industry with the world’s first average dwell and detention time metrics. Check out our newest infographic to see how excessive dwell times impact every stage of daily operations and how our metrics can help carriers reclaim valuable time.
Accurate Dwell Time Insights
With accurate vehicle arrival and departure times, we can help carriers with contracts, service agreements, appointment windows, dispatch and detention fee collection, while fostering collaboration between carriers and shippers.
Improved ETAs & Asset Tracking
Use exact location-to-location routing to improve ETAs, generate true mileage and calculate precise costs, as well as precisely track assets with arrival/departure times based on polygonal geofences around locations.
Reduced Delays & Dangers
Reduce delays and dangerous maneuvers when drivers are trying to find a location with turn-by-turn last mile navigation.
More Location Insights
Provide access to a variety of details related to a location, including coordinates, address, contact, custom notes and more.
Generic Point Radius Polygon
The traditional approach to geofences: the vehicle triggers an inaccurate arrival notification long before it will arrive at the destination.
Trimble Maps Polygon
Our approach to geofences: the vehicle triggers an arrival notification when it actually arrives at the destination.
