Introduction

The Realized Trips Service is a service of the Simacan platform that shares data from all completed trips with external systems. This can be, for example, a TMS, an invoicing tool or a data lake for further processing. Simacan enriches data from various sources and returns it in this way to be able to use it for all kinds of useful automations or analyses.
