Air-Trak Mobile Enterprise Integration

Extending Functionality: An Open API Makes it Easy

Integrating real-time tracking and messaging information into enterprise and third-party applications is quick and easy with Air-Trak's XML-based application programming interface (API). The API and library of web-services routines—which are all shared at no charge—accelerate the development of custom system interfaces and web-based tracking applications, using the same set of tools that Air-Trak used to create the Air-Trak Web Display.
