Verizon just acquired Fleetmatics Corporation, a vehicle GPS tracking company in Ireland for $2.4 billion. Fleetmatics makes software showing fleet operators vehicle location, fuel usage, speed and mileage, and other workforce data (no explanation of what that is.)

Verizon previously bought Telogis, another telematics provider focused on mobile workforce management
