BlackBerry Radar provides reporting from multiple sensors and integrates with the MyGeotab software platform. Fleet managers who use it will gain real-time data on the status of their trailers, chassis, or containers. Radar also provides a range of sensor data such as route and mileage, temperature, humidity, door open/close, and cargo load state.

Radar is easy to install and feeds to Geotab's online dashboard. Data is transmitted and securely stored on a cloud platform that maintans the privacy of user information, according to BlackBerry.
