Dedicated to delivering innovative solutions, this center of excellence is at the forefront of driving a cleaner, more sustainable future for transportation.
“We understand how the quality and richness of data captured from the vehicle can define the success of analytics that support fleet operations and a companies sustainability program, so access to a comprehensive view of data is critical. added Neil Cawse, CEO of Geotab. “Our vehicle support is a differentiator and we are proud to lead the industry in this area,” he says.
Despite the rapid growth of the electric vehicle industry, there is still no official standard for the information that is extracted from vehicles, which poses unique data challenges for fleet managers. Through Geotab’s technology and reverse engineering process, the company delivers a complete view of data that provides fleet managers with the information needed to make informed decisions for fleet electrification and sustainability goals, such as autonomy, efficiency and state of charge of the vehicles. Without access to this data, fleets can face problems such as inefficiency, unexpected breakdowns, decreased productivity and a poor EV experience.
Geotab has been at the forefront of innovation for more than 20 years. It has continually evolved to meet the changing needs of the industry, and for the past decade has specialized in electric vehicles. The company’s ability to provide rich and complex data signals for virtually any make or model of electric vehicle is a remarkable milestone that reflects the hard work of hundreds of engineers and data scientists.
“Our state-of-the-art High Wycombe facility is Geotab’s first dedicated to automotive in Europe. They are behind much of the success of the innovative technology used to reach this milestone of EV make and model compatibility, as well as our work with the British Antarctic Survey, the UK’s national polar research institute, as the first commercial telematics provider to go live in Antarctica,” said Edward Kulperger, Senior Vice President Europe at Geotab.
The center’s functions include reverse engineering of vehicles, optimal installation methods, testing and validation of new Geotab hardware and software, design, specification and testing of wire harnesses and installation procedures, identification and coding of vehicle on-board diagnostics new vehicles, update or additional data point of previously worked vehicles, product safety checks, collaboration with partners and customers, and employee training.
Geotab offers a number of tools for EV fleet management, including the Electric Vehicle Adoption Report (EVSA) which analyzes unique driver profiles and patterns to identify which vehicles in the fleet are suitable for electrification. The Green Fleet Dashboard compares performance against similar fleets, including EV performance, usage and cost savings, and the Fleet Electrification Knowledge Center offers data-driven analytics and resources for fleets of any size across the globe. EV conversion process, including analytics to help fleets understand EV battery life and the real-world impact of range.
