About MapGO
MapGO is a SaaS type web service for determining and optimizing travel routes.
Smart MapGO algorithms design the working day for your sales representatives, service technicians, couriers and drivers in the field for you.
The basic task of the application is advanced optimization of the route point order and assigning routes to available drivers, taking into account:
Drivers’ working hours
Time windows at points
Vehicles load capacity
Service time at each point
The ready routes are sent to the driver’s phone.
Benefits
Savings of up to 35% on fuel and number of vehicles
MapGO offers you a set of routes for selected drivers so that their total cost is as low as possible for you. You decide whether MapGO uses all available employees at the same time or minimizes their number.20% more orders
Thanks to optimal planning, you can serve more customers in less time. The perfect match to the time windows will increase the number of people satisfied with your company’s services.Instant planning
From a mathematical point of view, trying to find the best route for just 1 vehicle and 10 points gives us 10!, that is 3628800 combinations. By randomly selecting the order of the points, we have the same probability to score as buying 4 Lotto bets and hitting the Jackpot. MapGO can find the best solution to this problem in less than 5 seconds.
Precise route costs known in advance
How much will it cost you to handle all scheduled orders? You can find out right at the project stage. You will know the detailed costs of fuel consumption, road tolls, car rental or driver’s work.Route sent to the driver's phone
Once you have the route set ready, you can send each one to the driver with a single click, which he then opens in the navigation app received as part of the MapGO license.The world's best optimization engine
Emapa, by creating and developing MapGO, has broken more than 250 world records in the field of VRP (Vehicle Routing Problem) optimization. The aim of the competition is to find a solution that allows you to visit all your customers at the lowest cost, i.e. to minimize the total distance travelled by all vehicles. More..Features
All you need do is import the addresses of your customers (delivery points) to the program and set the parameters of the vehicles and the working hours of the drivers. MapGO then immediately locates the addresses on the map and determines the most favourable set of routes for you to serve as many customers as possible. You can postpone the points that are impossible to visit to the next day, or add them to a selected driver, deliberately exceeding his working time.
Optimization is based on an advanced routing algorithm that searches for all possible combinations of routes between the points, and selects those with the shortest total length.
Each of your customers may have a different time window, i.e. opening hours. MapGO creates routes that take these hours into account, so your drivers will always be on time at your customer’s site.
Each of your vehicles may have a different load capacity, and route points have different load requirements. The optimizer creates the route so that the vehicles are properly loaded and the right amount of goods reaches the designated place.
If any of the points (customers) you have selected for a given day are impossible to serve (they are too far from the base, have too narrow time windows, driver’s working time does not allow to serve them), they will be sent to the UNSERVED POINTS pool. You can manually add any of them to a selected route, knowing that the driver’s working time or the time window of any of the points will be exceeded. You can also save the unserved points in a separate file and schedule them all for the next day.
As soon as your driver logs into his MapGO mobile application, you can track his current position on the map and react immediately when an additional ad hoc order occurs nearby.
When planning routes for your employees MapGO determines the optimal distribution of tasks for each of them, taking into account their working hours and customers’ time windows. You can send ready routes to the phones of selected drivers with one click, and they then open them in their MapGO mobile application, and the GPS navigation app integrated with MapGO will guide them point by point to each customer. They will be informed on an ongoing basis about possible delays (time window breaches) on the route.
If you make changes to the route after sending the route to the driver, he will be informed about the available current route.
