Telogis releases GeoBase 3.0

The GeoBase SDK enables organisations to develop customised dispatching and navigation solutions using traffic, commercial vehicle and turn restrictions data, as well as custom route strategies.

"These enterprise features were developed to meet the needs of GeoBase customers within the fleet tracking, mobile resource management (MRM) and public safety markets, who want to differentiate their location-enhanced services," said Newth Morris, president of Telogis' GeoBase group.

GeoBase 3.0 builds on its fast and scalable enterprise-class mapping features, including rich and detailed maps, navigation, geocoding, reverse geocoding, geofencing and route optimisation.

Addressing the needs of customers who want to deploy on resource-constrained mobile devices, GeoBase 3.0 enables customers to easily add geospatial functionality, including turn-by-turn navigation, to new or existing applications via a .NET API.

New features of the GeoBase Mobile SDK include consumer grade POI search and address entry, 2.5d map views, the ability to import and overlay custom data sets, integrate traffic flow information and route commercial vehicles (considering height, weight, load and other restrictions).

GeoBase 3.0 introduces read/write spatial data stores that can be updated in real-time and queried for a series of customer defined conditions.

Additional enhancements include native support for satellite view map styles, new JavaScript client (for server deployments), postcode geocoding, and improved performance and memory usage.

GeoBase 3.0 also contains many usability enhancements from easier to use APIs to improved documentation and sample code.
