A Google Cloud Platform Case Study
ABAX, a Norway‑based telematics company founded in 2003, sells the ABAX Triplog GPS device to help businesses document vehicle use and avoid tax penalties for personal use. To provide reliable trip records and efficient dispatching, ABAX needed a mapping platform that was accurate, up to date, and easy to integrate.
ABAX chose Google Maps Platform — using the Maps JavaScript API and reverse geocoding from the Geocoding API — to build a web portal showing vehicle travel histories, routing and precise locations for dispatch. The solution saved customers about 3,400 person‑hours per month, cut vehicle‑related expenses by 20% (fuel, maintenance, insurance), reduced fleet fuel use, and helped demonstrate vehicles were used for legitimate business.
