Affordable Price
In these times of rising fuel prices and ever higher operational costs, it is becoming more important than ever to spend your communications dollars wisely. Watch out for over-priced solutions with exorbitant monthly fees!


Frequent Updates
To further reduce your wireless costs, select a solution with few bytes per GPS update. The PiccoLocate™ service is so efficient that with a 3MB plan, you can have more than two updates per minute (calculated over 10 hours of updates per day, 25 days a month). For a 24/7 operation, the equivalent update rate is about 72 seconds. Not bad for around the clock monitoring!


Great Coverage
Since PiccoLocate™ works with compatible GPS devices operating over the cellular GSM/GPRS networks, you benefit from a very impressive coverage footprint in North America, Europa, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.


MapPoint™, SVG and Text
Vehicle location reports and updates are shown in Microsoft MapPoint™, Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) maps or described in text format. Text reports are available in both HTML and WML format for easy access with a cell phone.


Animated Reports
For better clarity, SVG reports are available in animated format. You can play back the vehicle movements for the day, while showing a speedometer value and accumulated distance traveled.


Customer Locations
You can import Customer Locations from Excel™ spreadsheets. PiccoLocate automatically measures the vehicle distance to the selected Customer Location.

You can assign one or more Customer Locations to a mobile unit. The text reports will show the current distance to the active Customer Location. When the vehicle leaves an active Customer Location, the next Customer Location (if one more is assigned) will automatically become the active Customer Location.

If you wish, you can make this information available to your customer, so that they can better anticipate the arrival of your vehicle.


Dispatch Integration
As a developer of world class dispatch solutions, Piccolo can provide you with a GPS solution, which is integrated with your dispatch function.

An integration solution tends to provide the biggest return on the investment.

With PiccoLocate™ you are not stuck with a fixed and inflexible solution. The PiccoLocate tracking functionality is just the first step towards the ideal solution for your requirements.


Microsoft Architecture
PiccoLocate™ is built around the power Microsoft .NET Architecture, which gives you the highest possible performance at the lowest possible price.

Furthermore, PiccoLocate™ is integrated with Microsoft MapPoint™, which provides a very cost-effective mapping and address verification database.

Please note that you can monitor vehicle locations even without MapPoint™ using SVG or text formats.
