GPRS Based Fleet Management Comes To Lebanon.
WebTech Wireless has said that the Lebanese GSM network, LibanCell is to trial and offer its GPS/GPRS Telematics Device (WebTech Locator L2000) to power its i-Track service offering for web-based fleet management.
LibanCell had successfully launched its i-Track web based fleet management service last summer utilizing WebTech's GSM/SMS based vehicle.
LibanCell is the first GSM network operator to provide wireless vehicle location services using GPRS in Lebanon and the region. "We are very pleased with WebTech's end-to-end system capability and their experience with wireless data networks," said Hussein Rifai, LibanCell Chairman - General Manager.
"We are optimistic about launching our i-Track service on our GPRS network as it enables us to deliver other real-time data services such as Internet access to our business customers with fleets. The WebTech GPRS Telematics device makes it possible to track vehicles in real time at a fraction of the cost incurred with SMS. This added functionality is a definite advantage for our customers."
