Every tracker on a live map
A big map of every active tracker, even one that isn't on a car yet.
GPS fleet tracking for rental carsBeta
Know where every car is, and how each rental was driven.
Fleet Tracking is a Talara module that brings your own GPS trackers into Talara: every car on a live map, an A–F driving grade for each rental, each rental day replayed, and the tracker's readings at check-out and check-in.
In short
How does GPS tracking work in Talara?
Talara reads the GPS trackers your business already has, through your GPS provider, and ties each one to its car. You see every tracker on a live map, each rental gets an A–F driving grade, and the tracker's readings are taken at check-out and check-in. Alerts inform you; they never audit your staff.

What it does
What does Fleet Tracking do?
Your trackers, inside the rental they belong to. No second website to check: the map, the grade and the readings sit with the car and the order.
An A–F driving grade
Talara's own score for each rental, and for driving off a rental too.
Each rental day replayed
Replay a day of a rental, and open a tracker's Overview of today or yesterday.
Readings at handover
The tracker's readings at check-out and check-in, and Save as incident when something happened.
Alerts that inform
Moving without a rental, a device problem, harsh driving or a collision. Alerts never audit what staff do about them.
Tracker and car linked
A tracker and its car's GPS number are linked both ways, so each always finds the other.
A rental, tracked
What does Fleet Tracking show during a rental?

FAQ
Questions about Fleet Tracking.
Do I need new GPS trackers?

How is the driving grade worked out?
It's Talara's own A–F score for each rental, from the tracker's driving data. Driving off a rental gets a grade too.
Does Talara store where renters drove?
No. It keeps a daily summary per tracker as numbers only, for 13 months; places and routes are looked up when you ask and never stored.
Does tracking change what the renter pays?
No. Tracking's rental days are for display only and are never used for billing.
What alerts does it send?
Moving without a rental, a device problem, harsh driving and a collision. Alerts inform you and never audit what staff do.
