Accurate tracking and visibility of the transport route are crucial for efficiency and compliance in the logistics and transportation industry. Waybiller, a leader in digital waybill management, now offers integrations with GPS service providers to enable real-time e-waybill tracking. This advanced solution tracks every transport movement from loading to delivery, improving visibility and control.
Why is Route Tracking Important for E-Waybills?
Route tracking is vital for transport operations, especially in road construction and materials transport sectors, where road usage and material origin oversight are critical. This is particularly relevant in Estonia, where the Estonian Transport Administration mandates the tracking of transportation routes for aggregate and asphalt deliveries. Companies or contracting authorities like Rail Baltic Estonia OÜ also require that each e-waybill displays a detailed transport route. By adhering to these requirements, companies can ensure the use of appropriate roads, avoiding those with weight restrictions or other limitations.
How Waybiller’s GPS Integration Works
Waybiller’s integration with GPS service providers enables a comprehensive view of the transportation route through GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) position-based tracking. This process involves communication between the Waybiller platform and GPS providers, guaranteeing continuous monitoring from pick-up to drop-off.
Key Features of Waybiller’s GPS Integration:
- GNSS Device Requirement: Transport carriers must have a GNSS device that tracks the entire route. This device is a specific GPS unit installed in the vehicle, providing the necessary signal for tracking. In Estonia, the Transport Administration has made it mandatory to prove that heavy trucks are not using roads with weight limits.
- Real-Time Monitoring: Clients can monitor the location of trucks in real-time via the Waybiller platform, helping to plan unloading and other logistical operations more efficiently.
- Subcontractor Fleet Tracking: Waybiller also offers future functionality allowing main contractors to track the real-time location of subcontractor trucks, giving them full control of fleet operations.
GPS Service Providers Integrated with Waybiller
Waybiller collaborates with top GPS service providers across Estonia, Latvia, Poland, Finland, and Norway to deliver reliable tracking solutions. The current partners include:
To set up GPS tracking, transport companies only need to provide their GPS service provider’s API key and a list of vehicles equipped with GPS devices. Waybiller can also integrate with any other GPS service provider based on client requirements.
What if My Transport Company Doesn’t Use GPS?
If your transport company has not yet adopted a GPS tracking system, Waybiller offers a simple solution through its partnership with FleetComplete. For a small monthly fee, you can receive a plug-and-play GPS device that easily fits into your truck’s OBD-2 connector. The device comes pre-configured with a GPS and SIM card for hassle-free installation and instant tracking.
