Rand McNally's new IntelliRoute Dock2Dock system provides truck-attributed dock-to-dock navigation on city and inter-neighborhood streets.

The firm's commercial transportation navigation and digital mapping technology has been enhanced with datasets from NAVTEQ. This equips carriers and shippers with GPS-accurate, truck-specific routing that allows Class 8 and longer combination vehicles (LCVs) to route from the origin's dock to the destination's dock.

IntelliRoute Dock2Dock will include more than 6.5 million miles of U.S. truck-attributed roads, with more than 23 million links that contain unique truck attributes.

The new product is available as an online download for existing IntelliRoute customers and easily integrates with other logistics packages using an application program interface (API). Companies interested in the product should call Rand McNally's Commercial Transportation division at (800) 234-4069, or access www.randmcnally.com.
