Visibility & Tracking
GPS & Telematics Ingestion
Pull location and telematics events into the shipment record
Ingest GPS pings, ELD/telematics feeds, and provider events so dispatch and control tower work from live asset and trip positions.

The challenge
Why this breaks without a TMS
Location data sits in carrier portals and device consoles. Ops cannot see a single trip timeline, so ETAs and exceptions stay manual.
The ZingTMS approach
How we solve it
ZingTMS normalizes GPS and telematics inputs onto shipments and trips, creating a continuous location history for execution and customer visibility.
What you can do
GPS & Telematics Ingestion is designed for daily freight operations - not slideware checklists.
Ingest GPS and telematics events from connected providers
Map device and vehicle identifiers to trips and assets
Normalize pings into shipment and stop timelines
Retain location history for audit and dispute support
Feed predictive ETA and geofence engines
Surface live position on dispatch and tracking pages
Business benefits
Outcomes procurement, ops, and finance leaders use to justify the platform.
- Replace status phone calls with live position data
- Improve ETA inputs for predictive models and planners
- Unify fleet and carrier telematics into one trip view
- Support exception rules with reliable location evidence
Typical use cases
Owned fleets streaming ELD and GPS into TMS dispatch
Shippers consuming carrier telematics on contracted loads
3PLs consolidating multi-carrier location feeds per customer

Frequently asked questions
Straight answers for operations, IT, and finance evaluators.
Which telematics sources are supported?+
ZingTMS connects to common GPS/telematics and visibility providers; specific connectors depend on your integration plan.
Does ingestion replace the driver app?+
No. Telematics provides location; the driver app adds workflow status and POD evidence.
Can historical pings be retained?+
Yes. Location history can be stored against the trip for operational review and dispute packages.
