DiCAN Launches Plow Pilot on the Geotab Marketplace

DiCAN Inc., a southern Ontario-based distributor/installer of commercial fleet safety equipment, recently announced the availability of its patented Plow Pilot^® on the Geotab Marketplace, a go-to source for top organizations seeking to better manage their fleets. Plow Pilot provides government and private sector customers with access to an innovative and reliable solution for snowplow blade position reporting.

Integrating seamlessly with Geotab’s telematics platform and public works offering, this solution uses air-over-hydraulic trigger signals to sense, capture and transmit precise snowplow blade positioning, enabling customers to gain visibility into real time plow blade action directly from the operators control levels. Unlike hydraulic pressure switches or proximity sensors, Plow Pilot is an in-cab solution that has a lower risk of failure or damage caused by exposure to adverse weather, helping to reduce vehicle downtime and minimize maintenance costs. Plow Pilot offers users a range of options suitable for all types of winter control vehicles and assets, including both air-over-hydraulic and joystick electric vehicles as well as front, wing, and tow plows, tow trailers, underbody scrapers, rotary brooms, and windrow blades.

“Plow Pilot was conceived and developed more than 8 years ago to address the industry’s need for a more accurate and reliable blade position reporting system,” said Michael Shirchenko, partner, head of product engineering & development at DiCAN. “Geotab is the number one commercial telematics vendor in the world and we are honored to join its world-class ecosystem to offer Plow Pilot on the Geotab Marketplace.”

Geotab offers an extensive ecosystem of valuable, business-focused applications and add-ons which helps provide businesses with the tools needed to better manage their fleets. With the addition of DiCAN’s Plow Pilot on the Geotab Marketplace, Geotab customers worldwide will have access to a solution that provides access to reliable and accurate snowplow blade telematics data.

“We are pleased to welcome DiCAN to the Geotab Marketplace. With the winter months quickly approaching, it is important that governments and private sector winter maintenance fleets are equipped with tools, like Pilot Plow, to help optimize their current and future winter operations,” said Louis De Jong, executive vice president, Geotab. “To help ensure government fleets are supported all year long, Geotab is dedicated to providing government fleet managers with superior integrations and improved visibility of their seasonal and ongoing maintenance vehicles.”
