C.H. Robinson launches next generation transportation technology in Europe

C.H. Robinson has announced the launch of its Navisphere® Driver mobile app in Europe, designed to allow drivers to view and update information on their loads while on the road, the company said.

The app automatically submits required in-transit updates and enables drivers to scan and upload documents to expedite payment processes.

The mobile application, available for iPhone® and Android® devices in the App Store and on Google Play, was designed specifically for drivers. It delivers load assignments through easy SMS text notifications. It uses geo-fence updates and the phone´s location service to automatically submit near real-time load updates each hour, or more frequently if the shipper requires it. Tracking lasts for the life of the load. Finally, the driver can use the phone´s camera and the app to scan and upload paperwork to begin the payment cycle.

Headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, USA, C.H. Robinson (CHRW) is publicly traded on the NASDAQ. For more information, visit http://www.chrobinson.com.
