Vehicle location

What is meant by Vehicle location?

"Vehicle location" refers to the ability to track and locate the exact position of a vehicle in real-time.

Typical functions of software in the area of Vehicle location could include:

  1. Real-time tracking: The software allows to display the current location of a vehicle in real-time on a map.

  2. Historical route tracking: Users can view and analyze past routes and locations of a vehicle over a certain period of time.

  3. Geofencing: The software can set up virtual boundaries around specific areas and send notifications when a vehicle enters or exits these boundaries.

  4. Vehicle status: Users receive information about the status of the vehicle, such as engine status, speed, fuel level, and other diagnostic data.

  5. Reports and analytics: The software generates detailed reports and analytics about vehicle activities, including mileage, driving time, idle time, and more.

  6. Alarms and notifications: Users can set up custom alarms to be notified about specific events, such as theft, unauthorized use, or maintenance needs.

  7. Integration with other systems: The software can seamlessly integrate with other enterprise systems such as fleet management or dispatching systems to provide a comprehensive solution.
