Data Sources & Methodology
Every number is labelled by origin: live provider, official dataset, market estimate or user-verified RFQ.
Connected / planned providers
Road pricing logic
European road freight does not have one universal free public live-rate API. V1 therefore combines corridor benchmarks and transparent cost/rate assumptions. Live road-market providers can be connected when licensed.
Production data plan
*Subject to provider terms, licensing and required attribution. V1.7 distinguishes live/official data from planning estimates and user inputs.
How IndusLog decides what to show
Not every logistics value has the same evidential strength. An official tariff, a current carrier quotation, a public weekly fuel reference and a planning benchmark answer different questions. IndusLog therefore labels values by origin and avoids presenting an estimate as if it were confirmed transactional data.
Reference date matters
Fuel, freight and regulatory values can change. Where a number is time-sensitive, users should check the update date and verify the final value before a commercial or regulatory decision.
User-entered values
If you enter a negotiated price, custom fuel assumption or internal planning value, the tool treats it as a user input rather than an external fact. This helps prevent a private assumption from being mistaken for a public market reference.
