    You Can't Manage What You Can't See

    A parent calls the school at 7:15 AM: "Where is the bus? It's usually here by now." The receptionist puts them on hold, calls the dispatcher, who calls the driver. Ten minutes later, the answer comes back: "He's stuck in traffic on Main Street." Meanwhile, 30 other parents are wondering the same thing.

    • Parents and employees have no visibility into where their vehicle is
    • Dispatchers rely on phone calls to drivers to get location updates
    • When a vehicle breaks down, it takes minutes to figure out which passengers are affected
    • No historical data to analyze actual vs. planned route performance

    Live Vehicle Tracking, Route History & Playback

    When a driver starts their route on a compatible RouteBot device — a smartphone, tablet, or supported Android in-vehicle terminal — its GPS location streams to the dashboard in real time. Dispatchers can also select a recorded departure date in a service's tracking details, view the route taken, and replay vehicle movement on the map. Parents and employees open the mobile app and see their specific vehicle — with estimated arrival time.

    Fleet-Wide Live Map

    The Live Tracking page in the dashboard shows all active vehicles on a single map. Click any vehicle to see its route, current speed, and passenger list.

    Route History & Playback

    Open a service's tracking details and choose a recorded date. Review its route on the map, play or pause vehicle movement, and use the timeline slider to inspect recorded positions and their timestamps.

    Parent & Employee Mobile Tracking

    Parents and employees open the RouteBot app and see their vehicle moving on a live map — no dashboard access needed, just the mobile app.

    Estimated Arrival Time

    The app shows estimated arrival time based on the vehicle's current location and remaining stops, so passengers know exactly when to be ready.

    Vehicle Status Updates

    Drivers update their status with one tap — en route, at school, returning. Dispatchers and parents see these status changes in real time.

    See the Mobile App feature page for supported driver devices.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    GPS updates come from the driver's active RouteBot device, which may be a compatible smartphone, tablet, or supported Android in-vehicle terminal. Updates arrive every few seconds. Accuracy depends on the device's GPS hardware — typically within 5-10 meters in urban areas.
