Integration between Tellus and Coredination
For the transportation industry, there is now an integration with Coredination, the app that supports task and invoice management. The environmental data feature offers a simple and efficient solution for monitoring fuel consumption and meeting today’s environmental requirements. By calculating fuel consumption for each task, either through standard estimates or the integration, sustainable and profitable projects are created.
Connect Tellus to your app
Tellus API is a web-based application with a REST API interface that can be connected to roughly 98% of all modern heavy trucks in Sweden. SmartCraft Tellus provides integrations against all the major truck manufacturers: Volvo, Scania, MAN and (soon) Mercedes, for the user to retrieve vehicle data such as fuel consumption between a specific time period. You could, for example, retrieve fuel consumption for an order automatically when it is completed. Read about Tellus in Swedish!
