Citylink selects MapInfo for vehicle tracking solution

LONDON-Citylink Group Ltd. subsidiary Bluecom Group Ltd., a U.K. solutions provider to mobile workforces, selected MapInfo Corp.’s technology to develop SmartACCESS, a new Web-enabled vehicle tracking and telematics solution. The subscription service allows Bluecom’s clients in the transport, field service, public sector, construction and waste management industries to track fleet vehicles and provide drivers with routes and schedules. It also provides historical reports and real-time alerts, such as if a vehicle will arrive at a destination on time or the number of hours a vehicle has been on the road.

The solution uses MapInfo’s MapXtreme 2004, which provides core mapping and location intelligence, with MapInfo’s routing engine Routing J Server and MapInfo’s StreetPro, a street-level dataset for the United Kingdom.
