Astrata Europe has been named as Fleet World’s Supplier of the Week for its HGV-centric telematics and DVS-compliant camera solution, VideoLinc.

Astrata’s VideoLinc solution is targeted at reducing road accidents and the costs associated with them through better driver visibility and faster access to incident data

The solution is targeted at reducing road accidents and the costs associated with them through better driver visibility and faster access to incident data.

Often the circumstances of an accident are unclear, leading to costly litigation and time-consuming reconstructions to establish the facts.  VideoLinc provides high-quality event-based camera footage from connected dashcams at the front, side and rear of the vehicle.

The system gives drivers a 360° view, improving road safety, reducing accident claim costs and cargo damage, and guarding against false allegations, allowing a clear understanding of what actually happened and streaming live video to the back office.

Using VideoLinc will also help compliance with the Direct Vision Standard (DVS), a new vision safety standard introduced by Transport for London (TfL). VideoLinc helps to reduce road transport accidents and the time and money spent on resolving them, thus strengthening the legal protection of business and ensuring cargo security.

That’s why Astrata, a leading provider of location-based solutions for HGV fleets, has launched VideoLinc. A number of Astrata’s customers have deployed the system and are saving significant amounts of money.
