GARMIN two-way In the transportation of freight, time is money! Drivers getting lost on route costs both time and fuel, and in today's economy the fleet manager must run an efficient operation. By selecting AST’s DataNET "back end" software and a Garmin nuvi Fleet Management Terminal such as the 765, drivers will be able to take the shortest and quickest route to any address with turn by turn visual track and Garmin nuvi units will work with voice directions. Enfora and i50B Tracker units The power of the DataNET software allows the dispatcher to select a destination point on a map and to transmit the location over a cellular or satellite link to the vehicle, where the Garmin unit will calculate the vehicle's current location and the best route to the destination point and display it for the driver to follow. DataNET will also allow two-way text messages to be exchanged between the dispatch desk and the driver. The driver can send a choice of "canned" messages. The GPS location of the vehicle is automatically sent to the dispatcher's computer mapping display.
