How IoT technology is revolutionizing the trucking industry in Canada? The revolution in any industry has been always possible due to advancements in technology. We have seen over the decades that many technologies evolved to be promising from the roots.
When we look at IoT (Internet of Things) technology, it has been the key driving factor to enhance the outreach of the businesses. Interestingly, IoT technology implementation is just not limited to home automation, smart devices, smart cities, agriculture, energy or healthcare. It is smartly implemented in the transportation industry, vehicle management, tracking system, and data analysis. What has IoT technology to do with the trucking industry? Are there any specific consequences for that? Let us explore IoT with this industry through facts, concepts, and examples.
As per the recent reports by Allied Market Research, IoT in Transportation is set to boost the market by $328.76 billion in 2023. This researched figure speaks it up all, how the technology is bringing the revolution. It is more about centralized systems connected to transportation. This helps in monitoring, tracking, getting details on each fleet through cloud-based systems. The centralized system can also track the driver's behavior, truck speed, engine fuel status, security status, weather status, and location.
With the course of the time, the Trucking Industry in Canada have observed significant changes:-
1. Government rules implementation:It was clearly stated that each and every truck was supposed to install Electronic Logging Device (ELD) helping the cargo company to track each truck in real-time. The only issue faced by the companies before using IoT technology was maintaining manual logbooks related to their driver's working hours. But soon
after IoT came into effect, now the transport companies are relieved from those patchworks.
2. Enhanced tracking systems:With the use of IoT Technology, it has improvised the nature of managing data of each fleet of the truck along with the details of the truck driver so easily.
3. Enhanced-safety measures for drivers:Since the working hours of drivers are 10 hours it is vital to keep track of the driver's security in real-time in order to reduce the accidents prevailing. With ELD it is possible for transport companies to allot safe routes to their drivers thereby decreases the chances of accidents.
4. Real-time data analysis:It is vital for the transport company to track fleets, delivery of cargo, time, driver working hours, business exponential growth. With IoT, it is now possible to analyze each and every move of the company. This ultimately helps the companies to set future achievable goals based on the real-time data gathered.
Conclusion Many logistics and transportation companies within Canada have smoothened their operations on a daily basis with IoT technology.
Some of the unique features provided by companies to their clients are trip management, price calculators, fraud prevention, real-time data analysis & reporting, order management, and total hours management. Today, Canada has developed such an IoT-based ecosystem where the resources are easily available and the transport industry can migrate to the next level with so much easiness in operations.
