Geotab has been working on a DICKEY-john monitoring solution for many months and are now happy to announce the availability of this product as a “pre-release” product. The IOX-DJ unit connects up to the DICKEY-john Control Point Control System to provide distances, time, and amount of granular and liquid materials being spread during winter storm events. The data is captured through the IOX and transmitted up to MyGeotab where exceptions can be created and quantities spread determined.
