As part of the company's OnlineAVL2 fleet tracking platform, the system uses GPS technology and sensors attached to fleet vehicles' to display their real-time location on one screen as well as generate in-depth vehicle usage reports for analysis.

Engine hours, maintenance status, idling time, equipment utilisation, and usage of machine attachments such as buckets, hammers and shears are among potential subjects for documentation by Qtanium 300.

    How best is it possible to assess the state of concrete in a road pavement, bridge deck or tunnel wall? One of the most reliable ways is to take a core of concrete from the structure to analyse and test in the laboratory. One downside to this method is that doing the test creates weak points in the structure that must then be repaired. Another is that the frequency of such cores cannot be too great – so it is possible that some problem areas will be missed. New technologies from the world of geospatial eng
