Interactive Vehicle Tracking System

It is a system which can track the vehicles for its movement


through out the trip with GPS And GPRS.
The data collected at different data points are stored at the vehicle
itself and in the computers of respective data points then to the
server.

The Data are


vehicle number, started time, stop time, Fuel at, Date, Fuel
type, Qty, Amount, Balance, Driver ID …..

The Data Points are


the places where the interactive RF transmitter and
receivers are fixed say BPCL fuel stations.

6
At the data points

GPS & GPRS based RF transmitter and receivers (RF System) are
connected to a computers

GPS system is capable of interacting over area of 1 square metre

The GPS will transmit the data in


a periodic interval continuously
from the data point

Advantages

• Compatible with any SMART cards


• Data is stored at data point (fuel station computer) and at the vehicle
•Vehicle owners can verify trip data from their office
• Data can be online with server
• Data can be on auto SMS from vehicle(GSM/CDMA/GPRS)
• Owners of the vehicles and dealers are not at the dark, but given with lot of
information about their vehicles for analysis
• 100% automated system
