Logistics runs on where things are: trucks on the motorway and at the gate, trailers in the yard, doors in use, stock on its way. Icon Map puts all of it on one interactive map, inside the Power BI reports and Microsoft Fabric workspaces you already use.
Telematics, yard management, dock scheduling and warehouse systems already put every truck, trailer and door in your data platform. Icon Map shows them where they are, so a site manager sees the yard, not a table: which doors are free, how long the gate queue is, which trailers have waited too long, which carriers are late.
Build site and network reports in Power BI with Icon Map Pro, or bring live telematics, 3D vehicles and playback together in Microsoft Fabric with Icon Map for Fabric. One organization-wide license, no extra GIS software.
True-scale 3D trucks and trailersEvery rig as a 3D model whose trailer swings on the fifth wheel as it turns and reverses, in Icon Map for Fabric.
Every door and bayDoor occupancy, dwell and turnaround as measures, door by door and bay by bay, filtering with the map.
Live from telematics and the yardGPS, gate and yard events stream through Eventstream, or sit in OneLake for history and playback.
From one yard to the networkThe same map zooms from a single door to every site, lane and carrier across Europe.
Distribution center · Venlo, the Netherlands
A digital twin of a working distribution center
A real 126,000 m² distribution center at Venlo Trade Port, with its 158 dock doors and 152 yard bays read from the 8 cm aerial photo. Trucks arrive from the A73 and the A67, check in at the gate, and reverse onto the doors or drop their trailers in the yard for the shunters; vans load at the van doors. The operator and the traffic are illustrative.
Site: Venlo Trade Port Noord, building footprint from the BAG (Kadaster), heights from 3D BAG, the doors and yard bays measured on the 2026 aerial photo (Beeldmateriaal Nederland, CC BY 4.0, via the Icon Map Catalog), roads from OpenStreetMap. The operator ("Veldmark Logistics"), its trucks and its traffic are fictional and simulated. 3D vehicles, playback and live feeds are features of Icon Map for Fabric.
Outbound network · Venlo to the Netherlands, Flanders and North Rhine-Westphalia
The same stores, fewer trucks
One day's deliveries from the distribution center to its stores, on real roads: today's plan, drawn by territory, against a plan optimized across the whole network for time windows, truck capacity and drivers' hours. Drag the clock or play the day to watch the trucks run it.
06:000 on the road
Road network and store sites from OpenStreetMap (Geofabrik extracts), stores named generically. Routes planned on a 40-tonne truck road graph with EU drivers' hours, 33-pallet trailers and each store's delivery window. In Icon Map for Fabric the same routes, stops and positions sit in OneLake, with the plans side by side and a time slider; in Power BI, Icon Map Pro draws the routes and stops from your planning tables.
How it works
Your systems, on one map
Connect what you have
Telematics and GPS, the gate and yard management system, the dock schedule and the warehouse system, into Microsoft Fabric through Eventstream or Data Factory.
Build the twin
Your sites from the Icon Map Catalog's aerial photos and buildings, doors and bays as map features, your fleet as 3D vehicles that steer and articulate.
Act on it
Door and yard boards, gate queues and turnaround beside the map, with cards that follow each truck, filtering together in your Power BI and Fabric reports.
Across sites, fleets and networks
Where logistics teams use Icon Map
Dock and yard management
Door occupancy, trailer dwell and yard density, shunter jobs and the gate queue, on the site's own aerial photo, door by door.
Live fleet tracking
Every truck and van live from telematics, with ETA against the slot, late arrivals and detention flagged as they happen.
Route and network planning
Lanes, stops and drive times on real roads, depot catchments and what a new site or cross-dock would change.
Turnaround and dwell
Time from gate in to gate out, by carrier, door and hour, with the trucks that waited longest shown where they waited.
Emissions and idling
CO2 by lane and carrier, idling in queues and on site, and where electric trucks and chargers would cut the most.
Safety and security
Speeding and near-misses in the yard, restricted zones and gate exceptions, beside the people and vehicles involved.
Disruption and weather
Closures, congestion and severe weather against your lanes and sites, and the shipments at risk, as it changes.
Cost to serve
Cost, volume and margin by lane, customer and region, on the map, so the network decisions are made where the money is.
