Tamazari | Snow & Ice Fleet Telematics with Samsara

Turn Every Snow Storm into Better Fleet Intelligence.
When a storm hits, hours of operational decisions get compressed into minutes. Teams need to know what’s been cleared, where material has been applied and whether the fleet is ready to make the next pass.
​
Tamazari helps turn telematics into a clearer view of the work happening on the road. We configure the technology around the way snow and ice fleets actually operate, bringing in signals from plows, brooms, spreaders, deicers and other equipment when the platform supports it.
​
Whether you’re replacing an aging telematics system or trying to get more from technology already installed across your fleet, we help make the data more useful, the workflows more connected and the system something your winter operations teams can actually rely on when conditions get tough.
A More Meaningful View of Winter Operations.
Telematics only delivers value when it changes how work gets done. Tamazari helps snow and ice teams reshape the workflows, roles and decisions around the technology so they can respond faster, close coverage gaps and get more from every vehicle, route and storm.

Case Study: Turning Winter Fleet Data Into Airfield Readiness
METROPOLITAN AIRPORTS COMMISSION (MAC)​
​
Tamazari helped the MAC turn Samsara into a working view of winter operations across 691 vehicles and assets, plus 207 pieces of specialized snow-and-ice equipment. By connecting vehicle movement with plow, broom and material-application activity, we gave airport teams a clearer picture of what was happening across the airfield—not simply where each vehicle was located.

Change Management Built Around the Reality of Snow & Ice Equipment
Tamazari works with teams to understand how each equipment type operates and then translates those operations into usable telematics configurations, data and reporting.

Equipment and auxiliary-input mapping
Connect available plow, broom, spreader, deicer and other equipment activity to meaningful fleet data.

Asset data cleanup
Reconcile vehicle, equipment and installation records so teams can trust what appears on the screen.

Dashboards and operational reporting
Define the information supervisors and leaders need to see without overwhelming them with unnecessary data.

System integration
Connect fleet information with GIS and other operational or enterprise systems when appropriate.

Training and adoption
Help supervisors, administrators and frontline teams understand how the system supports their work.

Snow & Ice Telematics
Implementation Services
By guiding adoption and connecting telematics with operational systems, we help emergency fleets move more efficiently.

Monitor Vehicle & Equipment Health
Use available diagnostic and asset information to identify issues before they become bigger problems during critical operations.

Track Plow Activity
Understand where and when blades are engaged so vehicle movement can be interpreted alongside actual snow-clearing activity.

Monitor Material Application
Capture available spreader and deicer activity to better understand where, when and how treatment is occurring.

Improve Route Visibility
Give supervisors a clearer picture of fleet movement and operational coverage across roads, facilities or airfields.

Connect Winter Data Across Systems
Bring telematics into the larger operational environment through integrations, dashboards and workflows rather than leaving valuable fleet information isolated in another platform.

Snow & Ice Fleet Telematics FAQs
What can snow and ice fleet telematics track?
Depending on the vehicle, equipment and configuration, telematics can track location, route activity, plow position, spreader or deicer activity, vehicle diagnostics and other operational signals. Tamazari helps determine which data is most useful for your winter operations and how to make it usable.​
Can telematics show whether an area was serviced?
Yes. When vehicle location is combined with equipment activity such as plow engagement or material application, teams can get a much clearer picture of where winter maintenance work actually occurred.​
​
Can Tamazari work with an existing telematics system?
Yes. Tamazari helps organizations improve existing fleet technology environments by addressing configuration, integrations, asset data, dashboards, workflows, testing and adoption.​
​
How does telematics help during a winter storm?
It gives supervisors better visibility into fleet location, route coverage, equipment activity and potential issues so they can coordinate resources and respond faster as conditions change.​
​
Does Tamazari support large or complex winter fleets?
Yes. Tamazari has supported complex public-sector fleet environments, including specialized snow and ice equipment at the Metropolitan Airports Commission and statewide fleet technology work with the New York State Department of Transportation.
