Geotab has partnered with Rivian to deliver an integrated data solution for Rivian’s commercial vehicles in North America. The solution, announced at the Advanced Clean Transportation Expo, will use embedded telematics in Rivian’s commercial vehicles that will enable integration of vehicle data into the MyGeotab platform, the company said.
Rapid advances, and access, in data analytics are advancing connected transportation, said Rob Minton, Geotab associate vice president of connected car development. “You hear a lot about the coming of the software defined vehicle. The combination of Rivian’s sensor data capabilities accessed via the Geotab platform makes it a reality,” he said, in a statement.
The telematics device, which will be compatible with all commercial connected vehicles in the U.S., will have a unified dashboard. This allows fleet manager to view data and measure key insights for vehicle optimization and improve mobility functions, the company said.
