Closest Vehicle Tool

The Closest Vehicle tool makes it quick and easy to find fleet vehicles on the map. The tool helps operators plan the most efficient routes for vehicle assignments, considering vehicle availability and proximity to destinations. This reduces travel time, fuel consumption, and overall operational costs.

To install this feature, update GpsGate to the latest monthly release. No additional privileges are needed to use this function.
