SweeperApp™ is FleetMind’s application for street sweeping that can be used in conjunction with the FleetLink Vision+ on-board computing solution. SweeperApp provides street sweeping organizations with an automated solution for managing and dispatching sweeper routes and reporting their progress.
SweeperApp receives sweeper routes dispatched from FleetLink Route System’s automated routing engine, then presents them for completion. Stops can be confirmed automatically based on the road brush being engaged (PTO) or manually by pushing the ‘Sweeping’ button.
Work zone routes in FleetLink Route System
SweeperApp “route mode”
As stops are confirmed by SweeperApp, route progress is updated online in real-time and viewable from the web-based FleetLink Map™ and FleetLink Reports™ back-office applications. Dispatchers and supervisors have immediate access to the information they need to be effective, whether it’s reporting on the progress of a street cleaning job to a concerned resident or dispatching work to a sweeper vehicle that is running ahead of schedule.
SweeperApp “touring mode”
With support for pre-defined driver activities such as break, meal, waiting, fill water tank, etc., SweeperApp enables street sweeping organizations to precisely account for working hours and drive productivity improvements.
