Route navigation software

Technology category · O*NET

Route navigation software is a technology category in the O*NET database. Across U.S. occupations, 17 report using software or tools in this category. The named products below are the specific examples O*NET records for those jobs. The occupations that use it sit, on average, at the 38th percentile of AI task-exposure ( moderate) — how much that work overlaps with what AI can do, not a sign the tool is being replaced. See where every tool category sits.

A Hot tag marks technologies O*NET sees frequently in employer job postings; In demand marks tools an occupation specifically requires.

Example software & tools

Ranked by how many occupations list each product. Each number is an occupation count — a job is counted once per product — so the product rows overlap and do not sum to the category total.

Occupations that use Route navigation software

Exposure quadrant: AI task-overlap percentile vs Median pay AI task-overlap (horizontal) versus median pay (vertical), each as a percentile across all scored occupations, for 16 occupations in occupations that use Route navigation software. Overlap measures shared tasks with AI, not automation. Lower overlap · higher pay Higher overlap · higher pay Higher overlap · lower pay Lower overlap · lower pay Septic Tank Servicers and Sewer Pipe Cleaners Mechanical Door Repairers Railroad Brake, Signal, and Switch Operators and Locomotive Firers Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers Couriers and Messengers Light Truck Drivers Locomotive Engineers Captains, Mates, and Pilots of Water Vessels Airline Pilots, Copilots, and Flight Engineers Commercial Pilots Surveyors Door-to-Door Sales Workers, News and Street Vendors, and Related Workers Transportation, Storage, and Distribution Managers Dispatchers, Except Police, Fire, and Ambulance AI task-overlap percentile → ↑ Median pay

How AI is used by roles that use Route navigation software

A software category is not itself "being automated" — but we can look at the roles that report using Route navigation software and ask how those people actually use AI. This rolls the Anthropic Economic Index per-role signal up across those roles, weighted by how much observed AI activity each one has. 41.2% of the 17 roles that use this category carry observed AI-usage data (7 roles).

Across those roles, 60.1% of AI conversations are people working with AI and 33.8% hand a task to AI , with an average autonomy of 3.40 / 5.

Collaboration pattern Share What it means
directive 31.6% AI does it; you give the instruction
task iteration 30.8% you and AI go back and forth
learning 26.9% you ask AI to explain or teach
validation 2.3% you do it; AI checks your work
feedback loop 2.3% AI does it, then adjusts from your feedback

Roles behind this signal

The roles using this category that have the most AEI data. "Works with AI" is the role's share of conversations that augment rather than automate.

Occupation Works with AI Autonomy
Real Estate Sales Agents 62.2% 3.0/5
Door-To-Door Sales Workers, News and Street Vendors, and Related Workers 59.6% 4.0/5
Couriers and Messengers 50.3% 3.0/5
Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers 38.1% 4.0/5
Surveyors 52.2% 4.0/5
Dispatchers, Except Police, Fire, and Ambulance 50.0% 3.0/5

Source: Anthropic Economic Index (2026-01-15-v4-plus-2025-03-27-v2) over a sample of Claude.ai Free and Pro conversations — not all AI tools and not the whole workforce. Roles list software categories in O*NET; this does not mean AI is used inside Route navigation software, only that people in those roles use AI. Some conversations are left unclassified, so shares need not sum to 100.

Industries that concentrate this

Where Route navigation software matters most across the economy. Employment reach is the share of an industry's workers in occupations that significantly use Route navigation software (O*NET importance ≥ 3 of 5, or report using the tool category). Concentration compares that reach to the national average industry, so a value above 1× means the requirement is more pervasive here than across the economy as a whole.

Nationally, about 2.8% of workers are in occupations that significantly use Route navigation software (measured across 53 industries).

Sectors with the most such workers

Sector Workers Employment reach
Transportation and Warehousing 2,037,170 27.6%
Wholesale Trade 475,910 7.9%
Retail Trade 283,750 1.8%
Manufacturing 231,550 1.8%
Construction 224,800 2.8%
Real Estate and Rental and Leasing 218,770 9.2%
Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services 196,740 2.2%
Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services 101,370 0.9%
Health Care and Social Assistance 59,530 0.3%
Other Services (except Public Administration) 53,320 1.2%
Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction 40,320 7.0%
Management of Companies and Enterprises 37,390 1.3%

Industries where it is most concentrated

Industry Level Concentration Employment reach
Transportation and Warehousing Sector 9.86× 27.6%
Real Estate and Rental and Leasing Sector 3.29× 9.2%
Wholesale Trade Sector 2.82× 7.9%
Mining, Quarrying, and Oil and Gas Extraction Sector 2.5× 7.0%
Other Building Equipment Contractors National industry 2.5× 7.0%
Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting Sector 1.32× 3.7%
Construction Sector 2.8%
Poured Concrete Foundation and Structure Contractors National industry 0.93× 2.6%
Administrative and Support and Waste Management and Remediation Services Sector 0.79× 2.2%
Pharmacies and Drug Retailers National industry 0.71× 2.0%
Plumbing, Heating, and Air-Conditioning Contractors National industry 0.68× 1.9%
Engineering Services National industry 0.68× 1.9%

Reach is a measure of how widespread a requirement is across an industry's workforce, not how intensively any individual uses it. Sector worker counts come from BLS OEWS employment; the significance threshold and tool use come from O*NET. Industries shown by concentration are filtered to a real worker base so a tiny specialty cannot top the list on rounding.
