Real odometer every day
The odometer MyGeotab shows for each vehicle, recorded once a day and never lower than the last known value. In kilometres or miles, as the vehicle is set in Fleet.
Odoo apps · Telematics
Your telematics data, on every vehicle in Odoo.
The Geotab devices already in your trucks keep Odoo Fleet up to date: the real odometer every day, the last position and who is driving. Add our tachograph app and the .ddd files and live driving times arrive on their own.

The problem
The kilometres are in the telematics box, not in Odoo
The telematics box knows where each truck is, who drives it and how far it has gone. Odoo Fleet only knows what someone types, so odometers are copied by hand, late and with mistakes, and services and contracts run on the wrong figures.
And to see where a truck is, the office opens one screen for the position and another for the vehicle, its contracts and its costs.
What it does
What the telematics apps do
Last position
Time, latitude and longitude of the last position, speed, whether it is driving and whether the device is communicating, with a link to the map.
Driver of each vehicle
The driver Geotab has on the vehicle, linked to your contacts by Geotab employee number, tachograph card or name, and optionally set as the driver in Fleet.
Vehicles matched on their own
By VIN or plate on the first sync (spaces and dashes do not matter), or by the Geotab device you set by hand.
Read only
It never changes anything in your MyGeotab database. A read-only Geotab user is enough.
In the background
Positions and drivers every hour, the odometer once a day, with the last sync and last error visible in the settings.
Tachograph files on their own
With our tachograph app, the driver card and vehicle unit files Geotab downloads remotely are read every hour, never the same file twice.
Live driving times
Every 15 minutes, the EU driving times Geotab calculates, next to the last card download, with an alert before a driver runs out of time.

Add-ons
Webfleet
For fleets on Webfleet, the same idea through WEBFLEET.connect. Both apps are built; they are not on the Odoo Apps Store yet, so ask us for them.
Built, coming to the Apps Store
Webfleet: odometer, drivers and maintenance reminders
The real odometer every day, last position with address and ignition, the driver signed on in Webfleet, and maintenance reminders by kilometres or months (oil, roadworthiness inspection, tachograph calibration, tyres), with the history kept in Fleet services. Read only; works with every Webfleet plan.
Built, coming to the Apps Store
Tachograph + Webfleet: live driving times
The remaining driving times Webfleet calculates from the live tachograph, every 15 minutes, next to the figures of the last card download, with an alert before a driver runs out of time. Needs the Remaining Driving Times, Tachograph Manager Plus or TachoShare Plus feature in Webfleet.
No surprises
What it does not do
- It does not write to Geotab or Webfleet: everything is read only.
- It is not a live tracking map. Odoo shows the last position with a link to the map; live tracking stays in your telematics platform.
- Automatic tachograph files need Geotab's tachograph solution (remote download) in the vehicles. Without it, nothing is read and nothing fails.
- Geotab and MyGeotab are trademarks of Geotab Inc.; Webfleet and WEBFLEET.connect are trademarks of Webfleet Solutions B.V. These apps are made by Francodesystems and are not affiliated with either.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does it change anything in MyGeotab?
No. It only reads from Geotab through the official MyGeotab API. A read-only Geotab user is enough.
What if a plate in Geotab does not match the one in Odoo?
Vehicles are matched by VIN first, then by plate, ignoring spaces and dashes. When neither matches, set the Geotab device on the vehicle by hand and it is kept.
Can I get live driving times?
Yes, with our tachograph app and Tachograph + Geotab: every 15 minutes, the EU driving times Geotab calculates, with an alert when a driver has less than 30 minutes left (or what you choose). On Webfleet, the same comes with Tachograph + Webfleet, which is built but not on the Apps Store yet.
When will Webfleet be on the Apps Store?
The apps are built. Until they are published, we install them for you: write to us or book a call.
Does it work on Odoo Online?
No. Odoo Online does not install third-party apps that contain Python code, and ours do. It works on Odoo.sh and on your own server (on-premise), Community or Enterprise, Odoo 17, 18, 19 and 20.
We will show it working in 30 minutes.
With a sample company first and, if you like, with your own trucks and drivers next time. You talk to the people who build the app.
