Connected vehicle company Geotab has announced the availability of GeoTach by Evestel on its Marketplace to help fleets remotely manage driver and vehicle tachograph data.


A vehicle’s tachograph automatically records speed, distance travelled and driver activity. Developed by technology company Evestel, the solution provides a remote data downloading system for European Tachographs which integrates with Geotab’s telematics solution.

Geotab says this integration allows fleets to host intelligence from their digital tachographs in one central platform.

Stefano Peduzzi, director, Europe at Geotab, says GeoTach’s capabilities will help customers meet European tachograph compliance.

According to Geotab, the solution provides data on driver working hours into a central platform, assisting fleet managers in ensuring that commercial vehicles are being used safely.
