Driving directions for “truck” in google maps. Ask Question 5. I work for a company which helps trucking companies in optimizing their routes. I am using Google Maps API, v3 to determine optimal route between two points. Here is the business case I need help with.
Truck GPS Navigation is a truck-specific navigation system designed to provide safe and reliable routing on truck-legal roads.
Truck drivers know that choosing the wrong route leads to wasted fuel, out-of-route kilometers, lost time and money and in some cases also safety issues.
Unlike standard car navigation systems, Truck GPS Navigation calculates efficient routes based on the vehicle profile information, routing parameters and load type, including hazardous materials.
The driver can choose a profile configuration based on length, height, width, weight, max. axle load, and whether he is carrying hazardous goods.
The maps are on-board, which means they are stored directly on the device for offline use. At the same time both the maps and the application can be easily updated free of charge.
