Dot on the map: we are experts! And you will become one too, together with us..
A dot on the map can have significant value, especially in transport and logistics. For many years, we have worked with dots on maps. The most well-known dots are often generated by GPS equipment. This equipment can be installed on cars, trucks, buses, construction and agricultural machinery, containers, etc. Dots on the map are also essential for route planning and navigation to pickup and delivery addresses. Here, we have developed a range of solutions based on our experience, providing users with extremely high precision in their work.
Value of Navigation to the Exact Destination
In all our solutions, we use a QuickBooking feature to ensure orders can be registered as quickly as possible, especially when they don’t come in via API (automated data stream). At this booking moment, it’s crucial to clarify exactly where the pickup and delivery points are.
With the help of maps, addresses, and drag-and-drop functionality, the user can adjust coordinates quickly and easily while the client is on the phone.
This is particularly useful for transport to construction sites that may be in new areas where roads are not yet fully updated, or for container and forestry machinery transport where an address alone isn’t sufficient. Coordinates are king!
We ensure that the coordinates can be used by drivers in the driver app. The more accurate they are, the more efficient the process, with less wasted fuel and time. Clarifying the dot on the map from the start holds great value for the entire workflow in your business.
Dot on the Map: Efficiency Made Simple Across Many Industries
In many industries, precise “dots on the map” are crucial: they reduce travel time, optimize time usage, and increase profitability.
Tracking equipment, location, security, fill level, temperature, and humidity can all be measured, enabling automatic generation of pickup or order requests. Accurate locations allow employees to navigate efficiently without wasting time or risking misunderstandings.
The transport sector, in particular, gains great value from precise location details. This applies to container transport, machinery transport, courier transport, refrigerated transport, tanker transport, bulk transport, vehicle transport, livestock transport, moving services, timber transport, package delivery, furniture transport, building materials transport, as well as animal feed and agricultural transport. In these areas, accurate dots on the map mean more precise route planning and time savings.
Service sectors such as plant care, office services, cleaning, home care, window cleaning, gardening, pest control, technical services, IT services, security services, and landscaping also reap significant benefits from precise location data. For these fields, accurate dots on the map ensure that employees quickly and efficiently reach their next task, optimizing both time and resource usage.
The Technology
We utilize a variety of techniques at different stages in our order management processes. In the core STRA.com application, we use web-based technologies. For the STRA.com apps designed for drivers and mobile employees, we leverage the GPS capabilities of the device.
Asset management, as mentioned earlier, can incorporate various solutions: barcodes and QR codes, RFID, Bluetooth, Sigfox, LTE, GSM, etc. The technology we choose always depends on how best to meet the desired features, quality, and budget requirements.
Fleet management often uses GPS equipment that goes beyond just displaying a dot on the map. In this context, equipment can connect to the vehicle’s internal network to access extensive data on engine functionality, brakes, peripheral systems, and it can be integrated with temperature sensors and remote security locks, for example.
Ramp timeslot management can also optimize operations at terminals.
We are more than willing to explore how we can meet your specific “dot on the map” requirements.
