ELDs create volumes of data, and vendors are putting it to use for truckers — and themselves
In this story from June, Overdrive explored in depth what ELD providers and other companies do with the data that truckers generate from electronic logging devices. Mostly free from any regulation, ELD vendors are free to compile and monetize drivers’ data, or put it to use to create new services.

AOBRD-to-ELD: Tech providers on data handling, hours changes, improving core and ancillary functionality
“Nobody’s in a race to be regulated,” noted Pedigree Technologies CEO Wade Wilson, speaking with three other ELD providers in August on the subject of the AOBRD-to-ELD shift. While there’s certainly general antipathy among truckers to the mandate, a variety of business cases can be made for telematics technology.

Goodbye, AOBRD: Shifting loyalties, yard moves and other challenges
Considering options with any ELD provider when making an upgrade from AOBRD technology can involve much more than just the basic differences between regulatory requirements of AOBRDs and ELDs — many devices come with a host of ancillary functions.

Hours edits: Drivers in full control with ELDs
Office edits to a log, unlike with many AOBRD systems, will go to the driver for final approval under the ELD spec. Survey results show some carriers and drivers clearly appreciate the ability with many AOBRDs to bypass any driver-approval step in the log-edit chain.

The AOBRD-to-ELD shift: Data/edits and visibility at roadside
With AOBRDs, edits made in the back office as a general rule don’t present to the roadside officer. Under the ELD specification, however, data transmittal at roadside includes those edits. It also includes detailed records of the truck’s GPS positions, engine on-off records, engine hours and the like.

The mandate’s last roundup: The AOBRD-to-ELD shift
The final major deadline in implementing the electronic logging device mandate isn’t causing quite the stir as did the mandate’s initial effective date in 2017, yet for those grandfathered in to continue using AOBRDs, their impending sunset on Dec. 17 means adjusting to a device with a more rigidly detailed set of specifications that require some operational changes.
