TMW Systems – a provider of enterprise software for the transportation services industry – has announced the completion of a multi-year agreement to license NAVTEQ map data for a development program that will bring new geographic visualization and routing tools to customers of their software product portfolio. The NAVTEQ data coverage and detailed content will include its Transport package, which includes detailed road attributes such as physical and legal restrictions and HAZMAT warnings.

Initial development plans call for the integration of the map data into TMW applications already enabled to work with mileage and routing data commonly used in the heavy-duty trucking industry. Customers of TMW operations software will continue to be able to operate with multiple legacy mileage data sources to satisfy existing contractual obligations regarding such items as, driver pay or customer billing calculations. They will soon be able to add the benefits of the new map data and content for daily routing, Out of Route alerts, business analysis and fleet status displays. Plans for integrating navigation with TMW’s popular D2Link handheld mobile device application are also being considered.
