HERE Technologies launches fleet optimisation package , improving logistics management with time and cost-saving location software

HERE Technologies , the leading location data and technology platform , has announced the launch of its Fleet Optimisation software package , designed to enhance the efficiency and scalability of fleet management operations .

The HERE Fleet Optimisation package addresses the critical demands of the transportation and logistics industry . It offers the location-based capabilities needed to improve delivery times and decrease operational costs , by leveraging novel , HERE built Artificial Intelligence ( AI ) that helps solve the problem of complex routing operations for commercial fleets .
The package is a robust set of location-based application programming interfaces ( APIs ). The key components and features of the HERE Fleet Optimisation package include :
HERE tour planning : Leverages best-in-class map content and complex routing scenarios that consider real-time and historical traffic , alongside vehicle and road restrictions , to ensure optimal deployments of multi-vehicle commercial fleets . Supports fleet managers with the removal of manual route re-planning , greatly improving operational efficiency and costs .
HERE routing : Creates optimised , safe and accurate navigation solutions customised to truck , light commercial vehicle and twowheeler routing profiles .
HERE geocoding and search : Validates and enhances the accuracy of addresses and optimises route planning through precise geocoordinates , ensuring fleet movements are based on the most accurate and current data available .
The HERE Fleet Optimisation package offers a single , transparent pricing model for all components , allowing for better cost control and flexible pricing .
The HERE Fleet Optimisation package offers a single , transparent pricing model for all components , allowing for better cost control and flexible pricing . The package is available for in-house software developers and integrated software vendors ( ISV ). The locationbased APIs within the HERE Fleet Optimisation package are accessible directly in a users ’ environment , with HERE offering the toolsets , workspaces and APIs for custom development .
The HERE Fleet Optimisation package is built to run natively on Amazon Web Services ( AWS ). HERE Tour Planning and HERE Location Services ( Geocoding , Search , Maps , Navigation , Routing , Fleet Telematics and more ) can also be found on AWS Marketplace .
“ The Fleet Optimisation package is designed to streamline and enhance fleet management processes , helping customers manage their fleets more efficiently and at a reduced cost ,” said Remco Timmer , Vice President of Product and Portfolio Management at HERE Technologies . �
HERE map rendering : Delivers up-to-date , detailed map data , in raster and vector formats , with rich attributes used specifically by commercial vehicles ( including road restrictions , bridge heights , road topology and topography ). HERE Map Rendering provides drivers the visualisation and cues needed for reliable commercial vehicle navigation and operational excellence globally .
A key benefit of the HERE Fleet Optimisation package is the incorporation of variables such as vehicle profiles , driver availability and delivery schedules , to provide instantly optimised tours and more precise estimated time of arrival ( ETA ). HERE has shown these capabilities afford a 20 % potential reduction in fleet management costs , 90 % potential reduction in re-routing times , and a 20 % potential increase in driver productivity .
