Telematics for Trucks

Modern truck fleets are becoming more successful through telematics.

Maximize your truck fleet performance with Arealcontrol's purpose-built telematics systems designed specifically for heavy-duty transport operations. Our specialized tracking technology delivers actionable insights into vehicle diagnostics, fuel efficiency metrics, and driver performance data, empowering fleet managers to enhance long-haul productivity while ensuring regulatory compliance across operations.

Fleet Telematics for Trucks: Real-Time Monitoring


Transform your trucking operations with Arealcontrol's comprehensive fleet telematics that combines precise GPS truck tracking, advanced engine diagnostics, and proactive maintenance alerts. Our solution precisely records engine hours and working hours in real-time, enabling predictive maintenance planning that minimizes unscheduled downtime and extends vehicle lifespan. The system optimizes route planning based on real-time traffic conditions, vehicle-specific restrictions, and delivery priorities, allowing dispatchers to create efficient schedules that reduce mileage, fuel consumption, and ensure on-time deliveries.

Professional Truck Driver Performance Analytics


Access comprehensive driver performance insights with detailed telematics reports analyzing acceleration patterns, braking behavior, and engine idle times. Arealcontrol's system identifies idle times and unproductive fuel consumption, helping establish safer driving protocols while minimizing vehicle component wear and potentially reducing insurance premiums. Our solution simplifies regulatory compliance with automated tachograph data collection, digital driver hours tracking, and emissions monitoring features that streamline reporting requirements through our secure private cloud infrastructure hosted in mirrored Tier 3 data centers.

Integration with Transportation Management Systems


Our truck telematics solutions connect effortlessly with your existing transportation management and logistics software through REST API integration, enabling instantaneous communication between your control center and drivers in the field. Whether managing regional delivery trucks or coordinating international freight transport fleets, Arealcontrol's manufacturer-independent technology provides precise vehicle location tracking with geofencing capabilities, optimized load distribution, and enhanced operational visibility. This comprehensive system, installable in minutes with a payback period of just weeks, strengthens your competitive advantage in the transportation industry by digitizing fleet operations through automated data collection and billing.

Many questions - clear answers


How is the assembly proceeding?

The installation time for GPS tracking devices across your truck fleet can vary depending on several factors, including the type of device selected (e.g., hardwired vs. OBD-II plug-in), the size of your fleet, and the complexity of your specific installation requirements.

  • OBD-II Plug-in Devices: These are generally the quickest to install, often taking just a few minutes per vehicle as they simply plug into the truck's OBD-II port.
  • Hardwired Devices: These installations require more time as they involve connecting the device directly to the vehicle's power system. Installation time can range from 30 minutes to an hour or more per vehicle, depending on the specific truck model and the desired level of integration.

AREALCONTROL strives for efficient and timely installations. We will work with you to develop an installation schedule that minimizes disruption to your operations. For larger fleets, we can deploy teams of certified technicians to expedite the process. We recommend discussing your fleet size and specific needs with our sales or technical team to receive a more accurate estimate of the installation timeline.

What is the typical lifespan of the telematics hardware?

Drawing on over 20 years of experience in telematics solutions, we observe that while the standard warranty period is one year, our hardware typically endures for five to ten years, and often significantly longer. In many instances, our devices outlast the initial vehicles, and users frequently utilize the hardware across two to three vehicle replacements. The longevity of our hardware is further supported by regular software updates, ensuring that the devices remain technologically current over an extended period.

Can functions be enhanced later?

Yes, all solutions can be combined with each other and expanded at any time. Often simply via FOTA - Firmware Over The Air. Apps, BLE tags, and CAN readers can be expanded later if necessary.

What happens when crossing borders within the EU or to the UK, NO, or CH?
Nothing! Our telematics/GPS tracking systems roam in all mobile networks, both nationally and internationally. The telematics systems always log onto the best mobile network. This means you are always informed live and in real time. In the event of a network failure, all data is temporarily stored and forwarded.

Is this all GDPR-compliant?

Of course! A legitimate interest is required if personal data comes into play or the data can be linked to individuals. Our solutions are used by large organizations: medium-sized enterprises, corporations, cooperatives, and public law institutions. Both the data protection officer and the works council or staff council must be involved in advance, and a corresponding order processing agreement must be drawn up.

Can the telematics data be connected to internal IT systems?

Yes, of course. There is a comprehensive API/interface. Data can be transferred back and forth with the highest level of security. Implementation takes 2-3 days as a standard, with complex order management requiring a maximum of 7-10 person-days. Currently, there are standardized connections in the transport logistics sector to TIMOCOM, Agheera/Deutsche Post/DHL, GateHouse/Project44, NIC-Place, Sixfold/Transporeon.
