Samsara has announced a new integration with Esri to enhance fleet management and real-time reporting for government agencies. This turnkey integration allows customers to use telematics data from Samsara, including location, utilisation and maintenance, within Esri’s ArcGIS Velocity, a software-as-a-service IoT application for processing, visualising and analysing real-time data. With these consolidated insights, public sector organisations can elevate citizen services, drive operational efficiencys and keep their communities safer.

Public sector fleets often struggle with siloed systems and manual reporting processes that are cumbersome and time-consuming. This can cause data quality issues across departments and hinder their ability to make accurate, timely decisions. Integrating telematics insights from Samsara with Esri’s ArcGIS Velocity gives these organisations a more complete view of their fleet operations to eliminate data silos, gain real-time visibility and increase efficiency.

Esri provides mapping and spatial analytics tools to enhance decision-making and operational excellence for organisations across industries, as well as federal, state and local governments. The combined capabilities of Samsara and Esri’s ArcGIS Velocity allow customers to ingest, analyse and visualise real-time location and condition data, offering these key advantages:

“Our partnership with Samsara allows ArcGIS users to combine critical IoT data points with their geospatial system of record for a more complete view of fleet operations and management,” said Thomas Fair, the director of Esri partner network. “By consolidating these insights, we’re empowering our users to make faster, more informed decisions and have a greater impact on the communities they serve.”

Samsara offers technology solutions to state and local governments nationwide, helping them boost service transparency, improve safety and enhance sustainability. With over 290 partner integrations, its App Marketplace is the largest open ecosystem for physical operations.

“In government services, safety and efficiency are everything. From emergency dispatch to snow plow operations, every second counts,” said Robert Williams, the director, public sector partnerships at Samsara. “We’re excited to partner with Esri to broaden Samsara’s reach within the public sector and provide real-time insights that are tailored to the unique needs of these fleet operations. I look forward to seeing what our customers accomplish with this new integration.”

Samsara’s integration with Esri’s ArcGIS Velocity is now available globally to customers. To learn more, visit the Samsara App Marketplace.
