Travel

The purpose of travel doesn’t matter. Costs, efficiencies and customer service do. GeoSmart offers a wide range of resources for travellers and travel providers.

We provide data for Car Navigation suppliers such as Navman and Siemens VDO as well as maps and mapping information for many large and small Fleet Management suppliers. We also supply digital maps for use in travel planning which are used in everything from planning where to place bus stops to planning waste collections or brochure delivery.

Custom Street Maps allow travel and transport operators to create their own unique maps for internal use. We can create maps to any specifications including switching layers of information on or off to meet specific requirements. Digital images can be created of specific zoom levels and parameters and resolution for optimal printing or viewing.

The Ministry of Education uses our SmartMaps on the web to show where schools are, but also internally to calculate school bus routes.

Maps are provided for Mobile and PDA viewing and we are very active in the new mobile technologies including text messaging and MMS. We are the provider of maps for Vodafone Live and are actively working in the area of interactive mapping and directions for mobile phones, including preparing for the new GPS chipsets which have been integrated into the latest models of phones.

Route Optimisation is becoming very important to the travel industry. With increasing costs of fuel and running costs, the possible advent of toll roads and ever increasing traffic congestion, tools that improve efficiencies will be essential for the survival and profitability of transport operators.
