Germany-headquartered 3264 PTV claims that the current version of map&guide professional sets new standards for green logistics and transports and provides a wide range of additional useful features.

Version 2009 offers what 3264 PTV claims is an extremely significant innovation, the emissions calculator, which allows dispatchers to calculate emissions, such as CO2, based on routes. The software uses official data provided by the German Environment Agency for the calculation process. 3264 PTV says map&guide professional is the first standard software designed to provide high-quality emissions data on the basis of routes, providing an important step to get prepared for the challenges of future climate protection.
