The freight exchange DAT Services has been acquired by TransCore Inc., which just last year purchased the Amtech asset tracking business and Viastar fleet management services. With projected 2001 sales revenue of $340 million, DAT and its international EuroDAT operations offer electronic load-posting through video monitors in truck stops and through Internet e-commerce networks.
