Oct. 26, 2012

ALK Technologies has released PC*Miler | Worldwide 26.1 for companies needing international routing, transit times and maps. The new release covers 227 countries and includes street-level map data. It is now available for Europe, Brazil, Australia and New Zealand as well as data coverage for North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Oceania.

The software generates truck-specific routes, distances, transit times, maps, and driving directions over the entire international routing network. The distances are compliant with the latest version of the Defense Table of Official Distances (DTOD) used by the Dept. of Defense (DOD) and the General Services Administration (GSA) for approved freight rating and billing.

PC*Miler | Worldwide 26.1 offers improved routing and map data for over 70 countries, including significant coverage in Africa (including Egypt, Morocco), Asia (including Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and United Arab Emirates) and Europe (including Russia), ALK said.

In numerous regions outside of North America, Navteq digital map data has been seamlessly integrated to create the most dynamic solution available, the company added.

PC*Miler|Worldwide interfaces with all leading transportation, logistics and fleet management systems.

Additional data features include truck-specific routing attributes with a targeted focus on metro areas, reclassified vertical clearance data to accurately model low viaducts, newly built roads, updated street/highway names, and realignment of the existing road network to GPS standards. Other enhanced data and features include time zone and Universal Time Code (UTC) offset for every location, as well as updated exit interchanges and aligned ramp structures.
