Why fleets connect Hikvision to Traknova
When dash cameras and GPS trackers sit in separate platforms, incidents become a chore to investigate. You see the alert in one system, then have to log in somewhere else to pull the footage. If you run Hikvision cameras and a separate tracker, that is exactly the situation you are in. Traknova combines both so you click on an event, see the GPS context and pull the clip in the same place. No separate Hikvision portal running alongside your tracker software.
What you get
Live video from your Hikvision cameras
Watch a live feed from any Hikvision AE-DC camera in the fleet directly in Traknova. Useful for remote check-ins or investigating a customer complaint without waiting for footage to be downloaded.
AI driver monitoring alerts
Hikvision AE-DC cameras detect driver fatigue, phone use, smoking and distraction. These alerts appear in Traknova alongside the GPS position and speed at the time of the event.
Incident clip download
Event clips triggered by harsh braking, collisions or AI detection are stored in the cloud. Download them on demand for insurance, HR or compliance purposes from the Traknova dashboard.
GPS context on every event
Every camera event is geo-stamped. You see where the vehicle was, how fast it was going and what the driver was doing at the time. All in one view, not split across two platforms.
Multi-channel camera support
Traknova supports 2-channel and 3-channel Hikvision AE-DC configurations. Front-facing, driver-facing and blind-spot cameras all feed into the same account.
Cloud footage storage
Incident clips are stored securely in the cloud, not just on an SD card you have to physically retrieve. Access footage remotely without needing to get hands on the vehicle.

Hikvision fleet management FAQs
Yes. If you already have Hikvision AE-DC 4G cameras installed and running, Traknova connects to them by registering the serial number in your account. You do not need to reinstall the cameras or buy new hardware.
Traknova is built for operators who want camera and GPS data in one platform rather than switching between portals to piece together what happened during an incident. Hikvision AE-DC cameras are widely used across UK taxi, rental and logistics fleets because of their reliability and AI driver monitoring capabilities.
The Hikvision dash cam fleet management integration in Traknova means you register each camera in the platform, and from that point everything flows into one dashboard. An alert fires, you see the GPS context, you pull the clip. No secondary login, no waiting for a download link from a separate system.
If you are comparing Hikvision fleet management software options and want to keep your existing cameras rather than starting fresh, Traknova is designed for exactly that.
