Esri Partner Track Star Integrates ArcGIS Platform
17.3.2021 16:44:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
Esri, the global leader in location intelligence, today announced that its partner, GPS fleet management firm Track Star, is entirely rebuilding its automatic vehicle location software (AVLS) product around ArcGIS Platform. With access to Esri’s datasets and location services, their customers in the municipal, utility, and first responder sectors can overlay map data onto streets.
“Our customers know and are intimately familiar with Esri,” said Michael Hughes, President and CEO of Track Star International, Inc. “Until now, there really wasn’t a product that would allow us to develop a solution as versatile as we require for our varied customer needs, and we are very excited that ArcGIS Platform enables us to do that.”
A customer-hosted solution, users can implement AVLS as a complete system with maps and data, allowing these customers total privacy, the ability to customize capabilities, autonomous control of their system and industry-leading value. For instance, if a police department wants to track which cars are in pursuit or on normal patrols in real time, they can have this situational awareness with fleets at all time. A municipality can see the status and work progress of snow plows, if there is a malfunction on equipment, and if that plow needs to return for a repair. Utility companies can also provide remote workers with safety-of-life emergency signaling.
“ArcGIS Platform lets us stand up Track Star’s system in record time,” continued Hughes. “We have a widely dispersed customer base, which means that as we migrate to ArcGIS Platform, all of our users will follow suit. Esri’s platform as a service has allowed us to ensure that all of our customers can seamlessly and efficiently migrate to the new technology with ease and speed.”
The integration of ArcGIS Platform will first appear in Track Star AVLS Version 7.0, development of which is now underway. The systems will retain the affordable, private, powerful, flexible hallmarks of the AVLS system while also providing users with increased system performance and an enhanced ability to use their own Esri GIS data.

New Visa Research Finds Consumer Trust is Accelerating the Path to Agentic Commerce9.9.2026 14:00:00 EEST | Press release
Visa (NYSE: V) today announced the Visa Trust Index for agentic commerce, providing new insight into how consumers are navigating the next evolution of AI shopping and payments. While consumers are increasingly using AI across the shopping journey, only 23% of U.S. consumers trust GenAI to handle payment transactions on their behalf. However, confidence in agentic commerce shifts when payments brands come into consideration. Visa emerged as the most trusted brand for AI-powered payments with 61% of respondents saying they would trust Visa to handle agentic transactions. The findings suggest that while consumers are intrigued by agentic commerce, trust remains the key factor determining whether adoption moves from possibility to reality. "AI has the potential to fundamentally reshape how people discover, buy and pay for goods and services, much like e-commerce and mobile commerce did before it," said Oliver Jenkyn, Group President, Visa. "While we're still in the early days, trust will

New ABB and BCG Report Highlights Growing Role of Direct Current Technologies in Future Power Systems9.9.2026 12:42:00 EEST | Press release
ABB today published a new report, The Strategic Case for Hybrid AC/DC Power: Shaping the Transition to the Next Electrical Architecture, developed in collaboration with Boston Consulting Group (BCG). The report makes the case that direct current (DC) technology is moving from the periphery to the center of industrial, commercial, and digital infrastructure – and that the decisions made by business leaders and policymakers in the next two to three years will determine who shapes that transition and who inherits it. The future of power distribution is not an either-or choice between alternating current (AC) and direct current, but a hybrid system that combines the strengths of both technologies. While AC will remain the backbone of most transmission and regional distribution networks, DC is expected to play an increasingly important role within facilities where many major energy sources and loads already operate natively on direct current. The fastest-growing technologies, including sola
