IAP stands for Intelligent Access Program. The
IAP is a voluntary program which provides heavy vehicles with
access, or improved access, to the Australian road network in
return for monitoring of compliance with specific access conditions
by vehicle telematic solutions. In addition to enhanced access, the
IAP also helps to improve road safety, efficiency and productivity
in the road transport industry, reduce compliance costs, reduce
environmental effects and promote sustainable road
infrastructure.
To subscribe to the IAP transport operators apply through their
road authority to see if they are eligible to enter into the
program. Eligible transport operators then need to contact
OmniTRACK and enter into a contract.
The transport operator's heavy vehicle will then be fitted with
an in-vehicle unit (IVU) to enable monitoring of a number of
vehicle parameters. From there OmniTRACK monitors for compliance
and notifies their road authority should any non-compliance
occur.
OmniTRACK is able to provide this service to transport operators
in addition to, or separately from, other OmniTRACK services.
