The Fleet view page improves fleet visibility and dispatcher efficiency by displaying a maximum of information in 4 customizable widgets:

  • The ‘Assets’ widget: an overview of live data on the tracked assets.
  • The ‘Map’ widget showing the current position of the selected asset on a map.
  • The ‘Activity monitor’ widget showing more details about the selected asset (e.g. tacho activities).
  • The ‘Messaging’ widget enabling the dispatcher to communicate without needing to switch context.
