Transportation

The OverSight system from Locus Traxx makes every vehicle in your fleet and its cargo self-reporting.  Even non-powered equipment like dry trailers.

Real-time information on the location and status of each vehicle and the status of the shipment is automatically sent to your desktop.  Time consuming and error prone manual tracking methods are now a thing of the past.


You could assure the quality and
safety of the products you ship,
even while those products are on the road.

You would have in transit vehicle and cargo temperature and location information at your fingertips.

You would get alerts if a temperature or other reading exceeded a limit you set.

You would know as much about your trucks on the road as you do your trucks in the yard.
