The new Geotab Safety Center is Geotab's next-generation of fleet safety tools driven by data intelligence, predictive collision insights, and AI.

The announcement came at Geotab Connect 2024.

Geotab Safety Center is available within the MyGeotab platform.

In 2021, there were more than half a million commercial vehicle collisions in the United States, with more than 100,000 resulting in injury, Geotab noted in a news release. Collision costs can include significant reputational impacts, property damage, productivity loss, injury, and legal costs.

To protect drivers and avoid repercussions, commercial fleets are implementing data-driven proactive measures to help combat unsafe driving before a collision occurs. 

Managing Fleet Performance Risks

With Safety Center, fleet and safety managers can easily uncover and manage fleet performance risks, focusing their time on coaching and making operational decisions based on objective data, predictive collision analytics, and peer fleet benchmarking.

This builds on the safety tools available from Geotab which include its risk event reports, safety scorecard, video telematics, asset tracking, Active Insights, Geotab Data Connector (GDC), SDK, and Marketplace risk management solutions.

"We understand the gravity of safety concerns in the transportation industry and are proactively taking steps ahead utilizing the power of quality data and AI. With Geotab Safety Center, we're not just providing visibility into risks, we're helping companies to predict and prevent them," Geotab Vice President of Product Management Sabina Martin said. "Our enhanced and predictive collision insights put data-driven decisions at our customers' fingertips, helping to transform the way they approach safety, and ultimately fostering safer roads for everyone."

New Collision Detection Technology

As part of Connect 2024, Geotab is also unveiling its Enhanced Collision Detection feature as part of its 2024 safety suite of tools.

This feature will advance how fleets can detect both major and minor collisions, increasing collision detection precision and accuracy. 

The Safety Center is one of several new centers of excellence that will be launched in MyGeotab throughout 2024 utilizing AI and data intelligence to provide faster time-to-insight for customers.
