Applying contextual data insights for EV charging infrastructure

RSG used Altitude by Geotab’s aggregated mobility data to help Prologis understand and improve their supply chain logistics in California’s Central Valley. The study revealed that most heavy truck trips originated from eastern areas, challenging previous assumptions and leading to a revised plan for infrastructure improvements, including interchange placement and EV charging stations. By integrating Altitude data into their travel model, RSG provided Prologis with insights to address key questions about infrastructure investments and optimization. This data-driven approach resulted in heightened government awareness, accelerated infrastructure project timelines, and enhanced supply chain efficiency. Ultimately, Altitude by Geotab enabled Prologis to make more informed site selection and infrastructure decisions to foster smoother and more sustainable supply chains.

Every day, trucks travel across the United States, delivering goods that keep our communities running. It’s easy to overlook the scale of this operation, but consider this: these vehicles move 13 billion tons of freight annually, worth $14 trillion. As we strive for a more sustainable future, how can we transform this essential sector? Altitude by Geotab’s aggregated mobility data offers a powerful lens to explore the potential of trucking electrification.
