1985 Trimble has introduced a new cloud-based field service solution to manage fleet productivity - Trimble GeoManager WorkManagement, a software solution that provides on-demand visibility into vehicle and mobile worker utilisation. For routing, scheduling and dispatch, Trimble says the software makes it easy for organisations to maximise the mobile worker's schedule, provide better customer service, increase productivity and reduce overall operating costs.

"Using a cloud-based environment allows organisations of all sizes to easily deploy scheduling and dispatch solutions without the upfront deployment costs of an IT infrastructure," says Bryn Fosburgh, vice president of Trimble Mobile Solutions. "In addition, Trimble WorkManagement is unique because it visually depicts the real-time impact of changing schedules. When facts are presented, our customers can make informed decisions and better manage incremental jobs to streamline their operations."

    One of the biggest problems facing US ITS professionals, says Georgia DOT's Hugh Colton, is the constrained thinking which is sometimes forced upon those making procurement decisions. It is time, he says, to look again at how we do things. In the November/December 2010 edition of this journal, Pete Goldin interviewed Joseph Sussman, chairman of the US's ITS Program Advisory Committee. Amongst other observations that Sussman made was that, technologically, ITS in the US is 10 years behind that in the world-l

    AAdvances in LiDAR are helping transport authorities improve services and identify potential problem areas, as geospatial technology expert Dr Neil Slatcher explains. The effects of climate change on the transport infrastructure have long been a cause of concern within the transportation sector - and not only on the structures themselves but also on the surrounding areas. This year, those concerns have become reality with landslides, structural collapses and surfacing issues impacting services across the wo
