GeoAnalytics, Inc., a provider of GIS/LIS technology and management consulting, has assisted Chicago implement a second generation, enterprise mobile asset tracking system (CMAT). This system, based on Oracle DBMS, Java, HTML, and ESRI ArcIMS technologies, provides city streets and sanitation, fleet management, transportation, water management, and revenue departments with the ability to spatially monitor and report on the current and historic positions of city vehicles, cell phones, and other mobile assets.
Working in concert with the City’s Department of Business & Information Services (BIS), GeoAnalytics has enhanced the existing CMAT system to accept data feeds from multiple AVL providers and now track over 1200 city mobile assets. Data feeds are currently supported for GPS enabled vehicles and cell phones. This allows a wide range of mobile assets to be monitored in real-time using a single, web-based, City-administered user interface.
