New PDA Navigation

[Bboingg]

Tried out the Navigation on SA box collections this evening.
Results..........
Gets the route wrong sometimes.
Does not show the stops on the map.
Good news - the new PDA is a lot quicker to give you this poor information.

Till they start adding a shitload of additional software onto them They should have the same stuff but have it split into completely separate apps, maybe:

MC Tracked
MC Normal Parcels
MC Traffic Recording (not sure if this is already a separate app anyway)
DO Indoor
DO Outdoor
Collections

Maybe but if they aspire to be a parcel company the least they should have is mapping software that takes you to the door and puts the parcels in the correct order. They have apparently paid (a fortune no doubt) for the latest maps on these new pdas and it’s rubbish still.

Long term I think we'll see dynamic walk generation, especially if we eventually see a cut in the number of days a week that flats and letters get delivered on

I can never understand why there's no SA's routes pre-prepared, instead it seems anybody learning a new route as to sit with somebody who knows the route and take there own notes.

Given the new maps are still using Co-Pilot maps it's no surprise there's no real improvements, meanwhile, there's numerous apps you can download which take you directly to virtually any named house.

Just take a look at what the "competition" have. It was introduced in Germany and now they have it in the UK

I gave the RO+D a go when it first came out and its really not 1st class. The navigation lets it very badly down. There are far better apps that do both route optimisation and mapping combined far better on the play store


Hermes also have state of the art scanning technology using Samsung phones. It scans dozens of packages in seconds as you just hover your phone over it

We are so far behind the curve when it comes to technology...


How can I apply for a job in the Royal Mail technology team?
