HERE Traffic improves ETA in latest Telogis Navigation

Chicago, IL - The latest releases of Telogis Navigation and Telogis Route software will include HERE Real Time Traffic and Traffic Patterns with historical data and real-time estimated time of arrival (ETA) updates. These powerful analytic tools provide Telogis mobile enterprise customers comprehensive road information for more accurate and efficient route planning.

With HERE Traffic, the accuracy of ETA estimations can be precision tuned whether companies and organizations are planning a route on the fly or days ahead.

Additionally, HERE technology enables Telogis customers to optimize their route planning in advance by taking into account how traffic flows historically on the selected roadway at a given point in the day.

The addition of real-time traffic and traffic patterns complement other precise mapping data from HERE, such as truck-specific road attributes and posted speed limits, already included in the Telogis Mobile Enterprise Management (MEM) software platform. When combined, Telogis offers one the most comprehensive commercial navigation and route optimization solutions on the market today for all types of vehicles, from light-duty vans and pickups to long-haul, Class 8 commercial trucks.
