Transform Freight Visiblity with ELD+ Dual Source Tracking
Descartes MacroPoint ELD+ combines ELD and mobile app tracking within a single tracking session. Maintain visibility, collect driver-confirmed milestones and documents, and identify discrepancies earlier.
Strengthen Validation and Gain More Visibility
Combine ELD and mobile signals to help reduce tracking gaps and preserve visibility when one source stops reporting.
Add Operational Value to ELD Tracking
Enable arrival and departure confirmations, photos, document capture, and proof-of-delivery submission alongside automated ELD tracking.
Strengthen Shipment Validation
Compare independent location signals to identify conflicting geography, equipment-assignment errors, and other discrepancies earlier.
Expand Visibility Beyond ELD-Only Tracking
Real-time freight visibility has transformed how transportation teams manage shipments. Descartes MacroPoint ELD+ brings telematics and mobile location signals together within the same load-tracking session, creating a more complete operational view without requiring teams to reconcile disconnected tracking processes.
How ELD+ Can Help
Dual Source Tracking
Track ELD and mobile app location signals together within the same shipment session.
Tracking Continuity
Use a complementary second signal to help maintain visibility when one source is interrupted or stops reporting.
Location Signal Comparison
Identify conflicting locations and other anomalies that may require further investigation.
Driver-Confirmed Milestones
Capture arrival and departure confirmations that add operational context beyond location pings.
Document and Photo Capture
Collect photos, bills of lading, proof of delivery, and other supplemental shipment information through the mobile app.
OpsForce AI-Supported Follow-Up
When updates or documents are missing, Descartes MacroPoint OpsForce can manage driver requests, follow-ups, and confirmations.
