PRINCETON, NJ – ALK Technologies, Inc., a developer of GPS navigation, routing, mileage, and mapping solutions, announced the launch of CoPilot Truck 11, a full featured GPS navigation and trip planning solution that runs on Windows based laptop computers. CoPilot Truck 11 is completely redesigned with step-by-step address entry, 2D and 3D map views.
CoPilot Truck offers industry standard spoken PC*MILER directions directly in the vehicle. It is the first GPS navigation system specifically designed for company drivers, owner operators and leased operators. Truck-specific, spoken dock-to-dock directions are provided throughout the United States and Canada. PC*MILER routing options range from Practical, Shortest, 53 foot/102 inch Trailer, HazMat, National Network and Toll Avoidance with 13 foot 6 inch height, 48 foot length, 80,000 pound weight and 96 inch width restrictions.
An easy-to-see Driver Safety screen with flexible and clear map views eliminates distraction while driving. CoPilot Truck easily avoids and favors roads and locations, and will find the best sequence for up to 50 stops. If a turn is missed, its fast and automatic route recalculation prevents drivers from getting lost. In addition to truck stops, weigh stations and rest areas, CoPilot Truck includes 6 million infoUSA Points-of-Interest with phone numbers.
CoPilot Truck 11 benefits include:
Reduces out-of-route, empty and deadhead mileage
Reduces fuel costs
Improves driver and dispatcher productivity
Helps avoid costly fines and vehicle damage
Provides accurate pick-up and delivery times
Safe and stress-free driving on truck-legal roads
Improves driver retention and recruiting
CoPilot Truck's proprietary North American map database has been maintained by ALK for nearly 30 years. ALK's street level and highway network database has grown to over seven million miles of roadway nationwide, with more than 460,000 miles of truck-restricted roads. CoPilot Truck 11 includes over 800 updated counties across the U.S. with more than 200,000 miles of new roads. It also includes 140 million nationwide U.S. street addresses and 30 million nationwide Canadian street addresses.
"ALK released the first GPS navigation system for the trucking industry in 2001, this latest release highlights the evolution of our award winning technology under the hood," said Craig Fiander, senior director, marketing for ALK. "CoPilot Truck is tailored specifically for drivers who work in an unforgiving environment, where one missed truck restriction can turn a profitable load into a costly load."
As an added premium service, fleets can take advantage of a seamless connection to CoPilot Live FleetCenter™ which provides multi-vehicle tracking, 2-way messaging plus fleet management, mobile dispatch, and historical reports.
CoPilot Truck 11 is available at truck stops throughout the U.S., including Flying J, TravelCenters of America, and Petro locations, or by visiting one of our partner websites: www.DieselBoss.com, www.GPS-Planet.com, www.GPSCheap.com, www.BuyGPSNow.com.
