The world’s population is growing, urbanisation accelerating, and the demand for goods and services exploding. This is all transforming the way global supply chains function, putting pressure on the transport industry to optimize sustainable operations across the world. It’s a challenge, for sure, but far from insurmountable — with the right help.

Working across rail, multi-modal logistics and freight, Viasat is helping the transport sector harness technology to transform. From delivering supply chain transparency and improving operational efficiencies to enhancing worker and passenger safety, our bespoke connectivity services and solutions have got you covered, wherever you’re going in the world.

Optimising rail operations

Managing an expansive rail network is no simple task. A lack of terrestrial coverage hampers the visibility you have over your networks, compromising your ability to deploy technologies that could help you transport cargo efficiently, safely, and sustainably. But Viasat offers the services and solutions to help you change this.

With the support of our global partners, we can provide you with ultra-reliable telematics, control, and communications solutions globally. Do you want to track and communicate with your trains wherever they are, or even automate your train operation? Are you struggling to stay connected with remote maintenance crews? With our satellite-enabled connectivity, you can improve the efficiency, safety, and sustainability of your rail operations and harness the benefits of technology, no matter where you’re operating.

Telemetry

The greater awareness you have over vehicle locations and the status of drivers and cargo, the easier it is to optimize your operations and keep your staff and assets safe. But to have continuous visibility over your fleet, you need reliable connectivity. That’s where Viasat can help.

Our satellite services make telemetry data such as location, speed, and engine diagnostics available to you and your control center operators at all times, from almost anywhere. This gives you the tools you need to effectively manage diverse fleets of vehicles, helping to ensure drivers are safe and cargo is delivered on time. Take control of your fleet today with real-time telemetry enabled by Viasat’s connectivity.

Cabin communications 

Staying in continuous contact with drivers can be a challenge in isolated, far-flung locations. But we realize how important it is for the safety and efficiency of your supply chain. 

Our PTT Pro service ensures you have the connectivity you need to maintain instant, two-way contact with your entire fleet. From almost anywhere in the world, your drivers, warehouses, despatch control, and customers can access updates in real time. Even better, this gives you the tools to respond more quickly to emergencies and help drivers expedite deliveries, optimizing the efficiency and productivity of your network.

Passenger land mobile connectivity

High-quality onboard connectivity is increasingly being considered as a key part of the standard services provided by public transport operators, from coaches to inter-city trains.  Customers expect the same level of connectivity while commuting as they enjoy at home or work. Viasat’s range of land mobility services and solutions can help meet these challenges by providing ubiquitous always-on connectivity via our cutting-edge global satellite network.  Now, your customers can readily access the Internet, email, stream movies, update their social media status, and more, all on the go.
