GPS Fleet Tracking Technology

Future Quest GPS Fleet Tracking Solutions

For business managers who want the ability to monitor and track their vehicle fleet status and location on a real-time basis, without high cost or complexity, Future Quest offers several solutions, available in ASP, Hybrid and Enterprise formats.

ASP Solutions

iTRAK™

New levels of simplicity and economy have been made possible with the innovative iTRAK™ series of GPS devices, which work with a fully functional web based vehicle mapping service called iTRAK Fleet Manager™.

There are 3 different products in the iTRAK series:

  1. iTRAKjava™ is specifically designed for GPS-enabled cell phones, such as the Motorola i355. By purchasing a low cost java application and loading it onto their phone, users can then subscribe to iTRAK™ Fleet Manager on a monthly basis to obtain a rich set of automatic vehicle location (AVL) functions, including real-time location tracking, location history reporting, geo-fencing, etc. The combination of these new GPS-enabled phones and TRAKjava™ may be just the right potion for pulling AVL technology across the chasm and into the commercial, if not consumer mainstream.
  2. For companies that require a device permanently attached to the vehicle, rather than one attached to a cellular handset, the iTRAKpro™ combines a wireless data modem and GPS received into a rugged housing for installation into a vehicle. A primary benefit of the pro version is its ability to monitor external inputs, such as vehicle sensors, driver emergency switch, vehicle PTO, etc.

Hybrid Solutions

Fleet.NET™ Desktop combines the benefits of a web-based solution with the rich experience and speed of a desktop program. With Fleet.NET™ Desktop, your vehicles report their location and status information to a hosted server, where your fleet history is stored for 12 months. The Fleet.NET™ Desktop software program is then installed on each PC that you wish to track your vehicles from.

There are several different GPS devices available in the Fleet.NET series:

  1. PhoneLink™ provides real-time GPS based personal tracking and two-way messaging enhancements to any GPS enabled, Java capable iDEN phone, such as the Motorola i355 series available from the Nextel and Telus Mike networks.
  2. Piccolo ST™ is a low cost, installed GPS devices that is tiny in size, yet big on features and performance and easy to install.
  3. Piccolo AT™ is an innovative trailer and asset tracking device that features ultra low-power consumption, allowing it to be completely self powered.
  4. C2020™ is an installed GPS tracking unit that can be configured with a wide range of powerful features, including multiple input monitoring, engine interface, voice option and in-vehicle wireless router capability through built-in WiFi or Blue Tooth.
  5. CommVision™ is a rugged portable data terminal which provides integrated GPS technology and wireless e-mail capability. The innovative device makes for perfect applications in GPS fleet tracking and job dispatch for trucking, courier, and field service companies. The CommVision™ is available in either portable or fixed in-vehicle configurations, allowing your GPS vehicle tracking needs to be met seamlessly.

    Enterprise Solutions

    Fleet.NET™

    An Enterprise class GPS Fleet Management System is one that is purchased outright and installed within a specific organization. Rather than paying ongoing monthly fees per vehicle for system access as is typical in the vehicle tracking market, an enterprise system involves paying higher initial capital costs, but benefits from low operating costs. Perhaps even more important for some organizations, is that an Enterprise class system affords higher levels of internal security. For business managers that are looking for a complete in-house enterprise class vehicle tracking system, consider Fleet.NET™ Enterprise, which supports the entire range of Fleet.Net™ devices shown above.

    TranWare Enterprise

    Our industry leading TranWare Enterprise Systems are used by Taxi, Paratransit and other types of transportation operators throughout North America. Although TranWare Enterprise is an end-to-end dispatch solution with integrated wireless dispatch and vehicle tracking, it can be scaled down to an in-vehicle credit card processing called TranCard™.with optional add-on vehicle tracking capability calledTranTrac™.
