Transportation networks are specialized data structures that govern flow over a network. Networks are stored in a highly-efficient way, enabling TransCAD to solve routing problems very quickly. Networks can include detailed characteristics such as:. Matrices hold data such as distance, travel times, and origin-destination flows that are essential for many transportation applications. TransCAD provides functions for creating and manipulating matrices, and tools for spatial analysis and advanced visualization of matrix data.

This combination lets you see and understand transportation flows and network characteristics in new and different ways. Routes indicate paths taken by trucks, rail, cars, buses, or individuals traveling from place to place. TransCAD includes tools to create, display, edit, and manipulate routes, and unique display technology for mapping routes in a clear and compelling fashion.

You can organize a set of related routes into a single route system layer, and include route attributes, stop locations, and vehicle schedules.

TransCAD allows you to identify the location of transportation features as a distance from a fixed point along a route. TransCAD can display and analyze these data sets without conversion, and includes dynamic segmentation functions to merge and analyze multiple linear-referenced data sets.

This makes TransCAD a natural choice for:. The demo is available FREE via download. The demo is also available on DVD. Toggle navigation Caliper. Nuro might be considered a hero in some circles. That's because it's the first company granted approval for a self-driving vehicle by the U.

Department of Transportation. Sure, Domino's autonomous delivery program will be limited for now to one Houston neighborhood, on certain days—and to patrons who are tech savvy. But those of us who work in the supply chain will notice some familiar components to our day jobs. Indeed, Domino's autonomous deliveries will look very similar to freight deliveries that use transportation planning software.

Transportation planning software has become a pillar of the supply chain. And pizza is a pillar of my diet. Thus, it was only a matter of time before the two things merged! So today, we're reviewing one of these pillars—transportation planning software. We'll answer some questions like, What is it? How does it work? Who's doing it best? And of course, what does it have to do exactly with pizza? In other words, TMS and transportation planning software help you plan, execute, and optimize how to get the goods from point A to point B.

In addition, a TMS helps you do it faster and cheaper, with the least amount of back-office effort. Another way to think about transportation planning software is from the ground up. Allow me to elaborate:. Now let's take a look at a few more examples of leading transportation planning software companies other than Domino's Pizza, of course.

In honor of Domino's and Nuro's front-running autonomous delivery, let's take a look at some examples of software companies that are innovating in the TMS space. Here's who we'll get the deep dish on today:. It's an example of a TPS system that sends real-time updates. Real-time traceability fills all the holes in your data. E2Open isn't the only company focusing on visibility, but its tech is worth highlighting.

Imagine if your Nuro pizza delivery robot got delayed between checkpoints. Without real time, in-transit visibility, you'd have no idea what was going on with your delivery!

You could practically starve to death! The value that real-time connection delivers is pretty obvious. Transportation planning software suppliers, including E2open, help make the supply chain more resilient and agile. In addition, decision-making based on a fuller picture and real-time intel is superior to guessing and wishing. TransCAD is a transportation planning software platform that tries to check all the boxes. Collaborate across teams using a shared language and single source of truth.
