Long-Haul & Delivery

Route planning that survives the dead zone.

Long-haul and rural delivery workflows break when routing and maps require a data connection. Farun GPS Navigator keeps routing, POI search, and positioning fully on-device, drivers don't lose guidance when coverage disappears.

The Problem

Delivery schedules shouldn't rely on cell towers.

Logistics operates on tight margins. When a driver loses signal, cloud-based navigation freezes. They miss detours, can't find unmapped rural gates, and blow past SLA deadlines.

Dynamic Routing Fails Offline

When drivers hit rural dead zones, cloud-based navigation apps freeze. They cannot calculate detours around road closures, leading to delays and missed delivery windows.

Pre-Caching Maps is Fragile

Asking drivers to manually download offline map areas on consumer tablets is prone to error, storage limits, and expiration. It is not a reliable logistics solution.

Last-Mile Search Breaks

Rural addresses, industrial parks, and remote facility gates rarely map perfectly to standard coordinates. Without a connection, drivers cannot search for local landmarks or POIs.

Blind Spots in Dispatch Visibility

When vehicles drop off the network, dispatch teams rely on guesswork. Without local positioning, post-trip analysis of route deviations is impossible.

Device Capabilities

What the GPS Navigator does for logistics vehicles.

The GPS Navigator is a standalone device. It doesn't require a phone, a SIM card, a cloud subscription, or any external infrastructure to navigate. Every capability below runs entirely on-device.

Offline Navigation

Instant rerouting, no buffering.

Farun calculates routes on-device from locally stored vector maps. If a driver misses a turn in a cellular dead zone, the device calculates a new route without any network request - no buffering, no blank screen.

Covers roads, tracks, and local POIs. No cloud request, no cellular required.

Offline Map Storage

Massive corridor maps on the device.

Full regional vector map coverage is stored locally on the GPS Navigator. Drivers can zoom, search, and navigate across entire delivery corridors without consuming any cellular bandwidth.

Map updates delivered via local network sync at the depot.

Isochrone Planning

Understand true reachability, on-device.

The GPS Navigator can display isochrone zones directly on the map showing exactly how far a driver can travel from their current position within a set time window. Useful for rural last-mile planning and Hours of Service management without a dispatcher call.

Time-based reachability calculated on-device from local map and road data.

Offline POI Search

Full-text local place database.

Drivers can search for truck stops, weigh stations, fuel depots, and specific industrial parks using the onboard map database - no connection required. Nothing breaks at the rural edge.

Custom POI layers available for enterprise logistics networks.

GNSS Positioning

Independent satellite positioning in every vehicle.

Each GPS Navigator has its own dedicated GNSS receiver - GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo. The device knows its position, heading, and speed entirely independently of mobile networks or any external infrastructure.

Sub-metre accuracy in open sky. Heading, speed, and fix quality on-screen at all times.

For Developers

Building logistics software on top?

The Farun location APIs are a separate product for developers building dispatch tools, driver apps, and routing engines. They're not required to use the GPS Navigator hardware, but they're built on the same spatial dataset.

If you're a software team building on top of Farun's APIs, start with the API hub.

Without Farun

  • Drivers navigate blind when cloud routing drops at the rural edge
  • App buffering causes missed highway exits and forced detours
  • Drivers can't search for truck stops or facility gates without a signal
  • Dispatch has no visibility once vehicles leave network coverage

With Farun GPS Navigator

  • Full routing, rerouting, and POI search available on-device at all times - signal or not
  • Zero-latency map rendering from locally stored vector tiles
  • Drivers search for any landmark or facility from the onboard database
  • GNSS positioning continues independently of any network infrastructure
