Transworld’s Fleetview Software allows real-time tracking of assets equipped with the Mobile Eye, while receiving data and updating positions on GIS maps in real time. With both versions, an on-line web based ‘pay as you go’ solution, as well as a desktop based system; a company can track its goods and vehicles in real time.
