What we do
- TCA works with governments to develop administrative arrangements that enable them to receive vehicle information for a range of purposes or to meet policy objectives.
- TCA develops and maintains performance-based specifications for systems, devices or applications used to collect vehicle-based data. Examples include telematics and mass monitoring systems and alcohol interlock devices.
- TCA approves devices or systems to ensure they meet performance-based specifications.
- TCA certifies application service providers to ensure their management practices and systems meet the requirements in the specifications.
- TCA collects, validates and stores telematics data provided by application service providers, with appropriate security and privacy protections.
- TCA audits application service providers and technology suppliers regularly to ensure data accuracy is maintained.
- Through the Telematics Analytics Platform (TAP) online data platform, TCA provides reports which identify individual vehicles to government and transport regulatory bodies for compliance purposes and de-identified analytics and reports to government and other parties for road management and decision-making purposes.
- TCA responds to research requests from government and private organisations for access to aggregated and de-identified telematics data from vehicles operating within the National Telematics Framework ecosystem.
