This function makes it possible to track on a map in real time which areas have already been gritted or cleared (green) and which have not (red). <\/p>\n<p class=\"\">A particularly practical feature of the red-green comparison function is the time-controlled report generation. This allows winter service managers to receive detailed reports regularly and automatically, which not only log the gritting trips, but also provide valuable data on the gritting intensity and the exact deployment times. This function ensures that every gritting job is precisely documented &#8211; an important basis for traceability and quality assurance.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The combination of real-time data and the ability to compare historical spreading data can significantly increase spreading efficiency. This function can also help to plan gritting and clearing jobs in a targeted manner and manage resources better in order to avoid unnecessary costs and make winter maintenance more sustainable. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-3 fusion-flex-container has-pattern-background has-mask-background nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-padding-top:0px;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1664px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-3 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-5 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-four\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h4 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Application examples for geofencing in fleet management<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-10\"><p><b>Delivery services and logistics companies<\/b>: Geofencing makes it possible to track deliveries accurately and ensure that drivers only operate in designated delivery areas.
