Setting Up GPS

Connecting Your GPS System to AddOns

AddOns.la connects with a wide range of GPS services. You can find the list of compatible GPS services by navigating to the GPS tab in your AddOns Settings.

Each GPS section will tell you the information you need to provide from the GPS service provider.

GPS data powers a suite of valuable services, including Dispatch Map, Dispatch Monitor, and Passenger Link.

Dispatch Map provides real-time visibility into the location of your fleet of vehicles. This allows you to optimize your dispatching operations and ensure that your vehicles are always in the right place at the right time.

Dispatch Monitor gives you a bird’s-eye view of your entire fleet, making it easy to identify potential issues and take corrective action. This can help to improve your fleet’s efficiency and reduce costs.

Passenger Link provides your customers with real-time tracking information, so they can see when their vehicle is expected to arrive. This can help to improve customer satisfaction and reduce anxiety.

By using GPS data, you can gain valuable insights into your fleet’s operations and make data-driven decisions that can improve efficiency, reduce costs, and improve customer satisfaction.
