West Flanders track and trace software at Tour of Flanders – The Standard

             In recent 100th edition of the Tour of Flanders was also a piece of West Flanders tech deployed. The GPS track & amp; trace technology from the Kortrijk company GeoDynamics made sure the organization at any time knew where the cars with red and green flag stood.
         

GeoDynamics was founded in 2004 and develops track & amp; trace systems, which allow employers to know at all times where their vehicles and mobile workers are located. The software can also be used for a comprehensive time tracking, accurate planning, access control, rapid interventions and a sophisticated fleet management.

The location-based software GeoDynamics recent years developed and perfected, is so not only by example construction, installation and service companies. More and more event organizers look at the benefits. As Flanders Classics, organizers of cycling races like the Tour of Flanders and Ghent-Wevelgem.

“It’s great that we, among all those big companies, also co-operate with an event with such a major international appearance as the Tour of Flanders. The Tour is for us a great reference, “says Stijn Stragier, leading since its inception, along with Peter Vermeesch, GeoDynamics. “It says something about how we are perceived in the market, and how much confidence they have in our software solutions.”

Smoother traffic flow and communication

track & amp; trace software GeoDynamics was in the Tour of Flanders last Sunday – but also in Gent-Wevelgem – deployed to avoid a potential problem with a big impact. “Find several matches held on the Tour day: Messrs course, but also the ladies, juniors and in addition, this year a Fan Ride for a select group of amateurs,” explains Stijn Stragier from

“What. one does not naturally experience is that the various competitions will interfere with each other, such as an accident, fire or other emergency, the race is delayed, should be redirected so on. The cars with the red and equip green flag with a track & amp; tracking device, could see the organizers at any time in real time how the matches went and where participants and participants were located. That made for a better overview and ease of communication. One should not constantly contact to know where they were in the cars; the GPS data say enough “

GeoDynamics such events not only dodges.; they are an integral part of their business. Stragier: “You can use our software with different types of events. So the organizers of the Summer Carnival in Kortrijk used to trace them to each participating group. They ensure a smooth flow of the procession without the groups were in each other’s feet or the audience had to wait for the next act. For the carnival procession of several weeks in Halle, our software is mainly used to ensure safety. Other applications you can find in vintage rallies, races like the Lys Marathon and much more. “

The success of the GeoDynamics systems lies in the ease of tracking organizers. People or vehicles must only be equipped with a transmitter box ‘, you can compare the best yet with a smartphone without a screen and a SIM card in it. “Through the mobile networks, the data is sent to our secure servers, which the organizers can consult constant over a log.”
