> Telematics and GPS Buffstream - What Are You Tracking?

> Key: CRAIL-113
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CRAIL-113
> Project: Apache Crail
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Gay Kirk
> Priority: Major
>
> When it comes to telematics and GPS technology, what are you tracking?
> The Collins English Dictionary describes telematics as, "the branch of
> science concerned with the use of technological devices to transmit
> information over long distances."
> It is a rather broad description, but clearly explains the basics of what
> telematics were designed to do.
> GPS technology is seeking to take things a step farther.
> The question is, how will telematics and GPS technology continue to benefit
> both business and the consumer?
> Telematics and Business
> According to PC Mag, "GPS navigation, integrated hands-free cellphones,
> wireless communications and automatic driving assistance systems all come
> under the telematics umbrella."
> Vehicles offering services like, OnStar or Sync, are equipped with telematics.
> For companies like Ford and General Motor's, telematic features are huge
> selling points for their consumers.
> For fleet management companies needing a vehicle location service, telematics
> are a cost-effective and discrete option.
> GPS technology uses telematics to allow a company to not only track vehicle
> location, but monitor speed, create maintenance alerts, and more efficiently
> dispatch their fleet of vehicles from one location to the next.
> A GPS tracking system such as the L2000 or the X4000 provide businesses with
> the ability to access valuable data important to managing driver behaviors
> such as: engine idling, speeding, using company vehicle for personal use, and
> not taking the most mileage affective routes.
> All these types of behaviors cost businesses money on fuel consumption,
> insurance, and maintenance expenses.
> Using telematics and GPS technology can improve these behaviors, while
> increasing benefits to consumers.
> Telematics and the Consumer
> Businesses that use telematics, GPS navigation or a vehicle location service,
> are gathering information about how their drivers are behaving on the road
> and how it affects consumer safety.
> With a GPS vehicle tracking device in place, drivers begin to pay more
> attention to posted speed signs.
> This benefits consumers as there is less worry of drivers speeding to meet
> response or delivery times.
> Drivers using company mandated GPS technology make sure to turn their
> vehicles off when parked, preventing engine idling.
> This gives consumers peace of mind knowing their air quality isn't being
> further polluted by drivers simply waiting to go to or do their job.
> Drivers are checking route information for the option that provides the best
> mileage to reduce fuel consumption and engine wear and tear.
> Dispatchers are able to dispatch
