2. YOU CANT MANAGE
WHAT YOU DONT MEASURE
sums up our attitude to Fleet Management.
We do not believe in quick fixes and only integrate auxiliary
devices that will add value for our customers and not affect
the quality of our installations in their vehicles.
GEOTAB
Geotab was formed in 1998 and has been primarily involved in the Fleet
Management industry since then. A member of the Gerber Goldschmidt Group of
companies we are financially stable and enjoy a reputation of being the supplier of
choice with a number of global corporates.
Geotab has local representation in some 32 countries including; North America,
Australia and various countries in Africa, the Middle East and Europe. As our
products have been met favourably around the world we continue to expand our
international footprint. With over 350, 000 vehicles monitored by Geotab we are
recognised as being an established force in our industry.
Corporate offices are located in Johannesburg, Toronto, Cape Town and Durban.
Authorised distributors, dealers and fitment centres continue to be established to

YOU CANT MANAGE WHAT YOU DONT MEASURE
With an enviable reputation for both the accuracy of data, and virtually unbreakable
hardware, Geotab has become one of the leading providers of electronic fleet
management worldwide. Our success can be attributed to an obsession-like
commitment to quality.
In the run-up to the launch of GO4 in Africa we completed in excess of 2 million
kilometres of on-road travel tests, without any issues or concerns being recorded.
We only launched GO4 after the testing process was completed.
In our opinion it all comes down to accuracy. With trip data accurate in excess of
99.9% of the actual distance travelled [measured independently] we believe we
can honestly say that all our hardware platforms stand in a class of their own.

X-ACT ACCURATE LOGGING
We track vehicles using the 50 channel u-Blox 5 GPS engine with SuperSense速
Indoor GPS. Add this to our patented X-Act Intelligent Logging Processor and you
have access to Geotabs legendary Trips & Activity detail. Using superior positional
accuracy, distance reporting and trip profiling we stand head and shoulders above
traditional systems.
Complex, built-in algorithms monitor GPS speed, orientation and time on a second-
by-second basis and ensure that positioning relates to actual driving conditions.
No interface with the vehicle odometer or other components is required. Customers
are assured of accurate, comprehensive and clutter-free trip profiling and driver
behaviour information that reflects only relevant data.

THE SOFTWARE SUITE OF CHOICE
W W W . G E O T A B . C O . Z A
From the simple, yet vitally important trips and activity of
your vehicles, through the more complex measurement of
driver behaviour, predictive engine management and essential
accident data management, Checkmate handles the data in
a seamless, easy-to-manage method.
Our logic is simple and even the most challenged computer operator quickly learns
their way around Checkmate.

RISK MANAGEMENT REPORTS AND DRIVER RATINGS
Driver risk management reports and tools are available within Checkmate, our
proprietary software suite. The reports illustrate a complete view of a drivers
profile, and drivers are assigned a score based on their driving habits. This caters
for a fully automated process that identifies risky drivers; the reports include top
speeds, harsh acceleration, harsh braking, sharp turns and more.

5. DANGEROUS LANE CHANGES AND BRAKING
State-of-the-art built in accelerometers in our devices ensures exact g-force
monitoring that allows for the monitoring of Driver Behaviour, with a twist a built
in buzzer alerts the driver to infractions, allowing for the drivers to actively adjust
their driving habits as they drive!
Identifying aggressive on-road behaviour which is often evident in dangerous,
sharp lane changes and harsh braking, will help you profile hazardous driving
habits, allowing for training and coaching that will minimize the risk of collisions and
accidents before they occur. Putting a stop to poor driving behaviour will help you
achieve safety with your drivers, and other vehicles on the road.
ACCIDENT RECORDING AND INSTANT NOTIFICATIONS
If an accident occurs, be one of the first to know and take timely action steps.
With Geotabs unique algorithm, you will receive a detailed view of the last 100
minutes, broken down into second-by-second detail of the event. This will help you
understand what lead up to the accident, and allow for accident reconstruction.
Additionally, if a vehicle is hit while parked, it would prove no-fault on the driver.
If a collision should occur the Geotab device installed in the vehicle will automatically
download accident data, in second-by-second resolution, allowing for a full and
comprehensive investigation to be carried out by the relevant personnel in your
company.
Comprehensive mapping options - OpenStreet, Bing, Bing Hybrid and Google Street View
BUREAU SERVICE
Geotab offers a fully supported bureau service to assist clients in managing their
fleet management solution. Initial setup includes the definition of all customer-
identified parameters for the vehicles under our control and requires close
interaction between Geotab and our customer.

constant accurate and uncorrupted management data.

behaviour monitoring as well as detailed accident reconstruction, Geotab offers a
unique feature the ability to supply a focused, state of the art telematics device
that does not require splicing into, or cutting of the vehicles wiring loom.

7. IN OUR OPINION
W W W . G E O T A B . C O . Z A
IT COMES DOWN TO ACCURACY
With trip data accurate in excess of 99.9% of the
actual distance travelled [measured independently]
we believe we can honestly say that all our hardware
platforms stand in a class of their own.
MOBILE WITNESS
The introduction of Mobile Witness has brought in-cab cameras within the reach
of fleet managers, at an affordable price. Two devices are available, catering for
single [road ahead] and dual view [in-cab and the road ahead] images to be
recorded.
As soon as a pre-set parameter is broken Mobile Witness creates an Exception
in Checkmate allowing the end user to quickly view the data around which the
event occurred, rather than spend hours viewing video files, looking for incidents.
Both devices have an emergency button that allows the Driver to record an event for
subsequent viewing, such as their arrival or departure from premises. All events are
both time and position stamped within Checkmate allowing for exact positioning
of an event.
IRIDIUM GPS DATA MODEM [CROSS-BORDER DATA TRANSFER]
The introduction of the Iridium GPS Data modem with GO4 has enabled Geotab
to offer a cost-effective alternative to costly data roaming, when vehicles leave
their country of origin. The Iridium unit is connected to a standard GO4 platform
and automatically assumes the data transfer [using the GPS satellites as the data
carrier] when the GSM modem disconnects from the network in the country of
origin.
Added functionality allows for the vehicle to be positioned in a number of ways.
Polling as and when required by the end-user, automatic time-based positioning
[for example 4 positions per hour] or a combination of the above. A further
enhancement is the ability to enable a distress call via the Iridium unit allowing
for communication alerts should the driver encounter difficulty when cross-border.
GO4 automatically records the trip movement of the vehicle to its on-board
memory whilst roaming. Upon re-entry into the country of origin the GSM modem
automatically reconnects to the local network and dumps the entire cross-border
trip onto the customers database.
