TELE ATLAS® AND PROMILES® TEAM TO ENHANCE
ROUTING AND LOGISTICS SOLUTIONS
Expanded
relationship incorporates extensive turn-by-turn data from Tele Atlas with
industry-leading trucking attributes from ProMiles
LAS VEGAS — 2004 ATA MC&E — OCTOBER 5, 2004—Tele Atlas, a worldwide leading provider of
digital maps and location content, and ProMiles®
Software Development Corporation (PSDC), announced today that the two companies
are collaborating to bring the power of ProMiles XF® and TruckMiles® truck
routing applications and Tele Atlas’ turn-by-turn map data to trucking and
logistics companies. Through this expanded agreement, ProMiles will begin
incorporating Tele Atlas’ turn-by-turn data into its routing and logistics
products for street level routing applications.
This expanded relationship brings benefits to
companies’ customers. ProMiles will integrate Tele Atlas data and its
customers will benefit from the enhanced door-to-door addressing and routing
that Tele Atlas’ data offers. In the future, as ProMiles truck attribute
content is linked to the Tele Atlas database, Tele Atlas customers will be able
to license ProMiles attributes as part of their turn-by-turn content to develop
more compelling applications.
“ProMiles offers one of only a few applications
that offers door-to-door addressing along with truck attributes such as
designated truck routes, hazardous restrictions, weight and height
restrictions, etc.,” said Dana Fenner, director of Fleet Logistics vice
president for Tele Atlas North America. “By combining this functionality with
Tele Atlas’ detailed routing and addressing content, we are bringing an even more
powerful solution to the industry.”
"We are always evaluating the products we
offer our customers and continue to seek out ways to improve our products and
services," stated Tony Stroncheck, president of ProMiles® Software
Development Corporation (PSDC). "By partnering with Tele Atlas, we are
able to further enhance our product and deliver increased value to our
customers."
