Don't leave your journey to chance
Many transport and logistics companies use software and services from Dotted Eyes to help them achieve organisational efficiency.
Some organisations use OS MasterMap's Address Layer and Integrated Transport Network (ITN) Layer to plan delivery schedules and routes more accurately. Efficient planning increases the number of drops per vehicles, making better use of a fleet and saving money. Drivers benefit from being routed directly to a customer's door reducing their stress levels during the 'last mile'.
We can also provide desktop GIS software, such as MapInfo Professional, and routing/scheduling software, such as RouteFinder.
Our web mapping software is already in use by organisations who need to track vehicles, such as Exactrak.
Our goal for 2008 is to help more transport and logistics organisations reap the benefits of using geographical information systems (GIS). We plan to do this by hosting free user groups, allowing members to meet and start sharing ideas and best practice. We will also produce a guide which can be used to show decision makers the importance of location intelligence. It will also feature a handy guide to buying the right type of data for your organisation.
We are delighted that Ordnance Survey, Great Britain's National Mapping Agency, is supporting these activities.
