Rhino Fleet Tracking is a GPS tracking solution that helps companies efficiently monitor their equipment. The GPS tracker is installed into the vehicle, and fleet managers can monitor its movement in real time via Google Maps.

Features
We’ve listed some key features of Rhino Fleet Tracking below.
Vehicle tracking – Fleet managers can see all of their fleet data via a dashboard. Relevant information on each vehicle (e.g., current location, stops, actual speed) is displayed in real time on Google Maps. The software has a new feature that allows managers to track the vehicle with their voice via Amazon Alexa. Managers can track the length of time a driver spends at each stop, get notified when the vehicle exceeds the speed limit and set up landmarks that pinpoint the driver’s location in case they get lost. Additional tracking features include geofencing, scheduled maintenance reminders and 15 built-in reports on various metrics.
Trailer and equipment tracking – Companies can track their trailers and equipment (e.g., refrigerators, landscaping machines) the same way that they track vehicles (e.g. monitoring location via Google Maps, geofencing alerts). The vendor offers a variety of trackers, such as a battery-powered equipment tracker, a weatherproof trailer tracker and a hard-wired asset tracker.
Dashboard camera – The add-on dashboard camera provides a visual documentation of the driver’s behavior. It has a 360-degree view of the inside and outside of the vehicle, and managers can access both the video and tracking data via the online dashboard. The camera doesn’t require extensive installation, since it can be placed on the windshield.
Driver scorecard – This feature allows managers to measure their driver’s performance. They can set up specific metrics, and the scorecard calculates a score based on the driver behavior and GPS tracking data. The manager can see the scores by individual or team, and they can use them as a coaching tool.
Electronic logging devices (ELDs) – The vendor offers a certified ELD solution that complies with the FMCSA mandates. It includes many fleet tracking features, plus driver availability monitoring, alerts when drivers reach their Hour of Service (HOS) limits and International Fuel Tax Association (IFTA) reports. Note that the solution is only available for companies that plan to purchase at least 30 trackers.
