With the current global financial crisis, companies large and small are looking for various ways to cut costs.  Almost all businesses use some form of transportation, whether it is a company car for employees to use to get to appointments or a fleet of trucks to transport products.  Especially for large fleet managers, monitoring dozens, hundreds or thousands, of trucks or other vehicles presents many challenges, fleet managers have to find methods to best meet the challenge at hand, and GPS-based tracking technology, used for a variety of functions in the industry, is a valuable tool.

Israeli company Pointer Telocation has launched a new temperature sensor as part of its fully integrated Cellocator Compact Fleet unit (CCF). The new sensor enables fleet managers to be consistently updated as to the temperature of their cooled items and to make adjustments if necessary. It allows monitoring of cooled compartments by directly connecting to the CCF unit.
