Telematics meets Route Optimization

Telematics meets Route Optimization: Making good use of existing data

Many trucking companies use telematics systems and route optimization. But what is often overlooked? When both systems work together, more reliable and efficient routes can be planned.

Benefits of combining Telematics and Route Optimization

  • Less manual interventions during day-to-day operations
  • More reliable tours
  • Greater acceptance of the system among drivers and dispatchers

Which data can be used from the telematics system?

Real time data

Downtime, actual driving time, GPS track data

Profile of drivers

Speed profiles & driving modes

Tour operation

Successes/Problems on tour

Driving times

Rest and driving times

The solution: PTV Logistics & TIS GmbH

Together with PTV Logistics, we offer you a solution in which telematics and route optimization work together to achieve the best possible results.

To do this, our TISLOG telematics system is connected to PTV Optiflow via an interface. The telematics data is automatically transferred from TISLOG to PTV Optiflow, where it is available for more reliable route planning.

The result?
Route optimization can draw on real historical data and doesn’t have to rely on estimates or averages. This leads to routes that run exactly as planned and reduces the need for manual intervention by dispatchers. This not only saves working time at freight forwarders or industrial companies but also offers their customers greater reliability. And the best part? The more data that’s collected, the better the routes become—every single day.
