GPS Asset-Tracking Devices Popular at Trucking Show

Posted 08/02/16

Geography (or even topography) may not have been your favorite subject in school. You may not have even recognized the importance of the subject at the time as your instructor attempted to direct your attention to multi-colored maps scrawled over with strange, wiggly lines.

But as manager of a fleet of trucks potentially trekking across nearly 3 million miles of paved roads in the United States, geography and topography are suddenly very crucial considerations. iGlobal LLC, an advanced technology company specializing in developing industrial solutions, is preparing to head to The Great American Trucking Show Aug. 25-27, 2016, at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas.

Last year around 500 exhibitors showcased their products and services in the 500,000 square feet of exhibition space. More than 50,000 people attended last year’s show.

iGlobal, LLC will have two highly advanced and very popular asset tracking devices on display with technology experts on hand to respond to questions.
