HOW VEHICLE TRACKING SYSTEM WORK?

A GPS antenna is tethered to the unit with a lead wire (typically 10-15 feet). The GPS antenna collects

the GPS data and feeds it to the unit. The unit does some processing of events and speeds. Additionally,

the GPS vehicle tracking unit has a wireless modem inside, similar to ones found in cell phones. This

modem is used to communicate with Global Tracking’s systems. The GPS data is sent directly from the

vehicle’s unit to our servers, where we process the information for the user. All of this happens in real-

time. GPS determines the distance between a GPS satellite and a GPS receiver by measuring the amount

of time taken by a radio signal (the GPS signal) to travel from the satellite to the receiver. To obtain

accurate information, the satellites and the receiver use very accurate clocks, which are synchronized

so that they generate the same code at exactly the same time.

Introduction

GPS Bransys is a real-life tracking and positioning system, using a web-based application. It uses

several different services including GPS (Global Positioning System) for accurate vehicle location

and the Internet for a visual display of the web-based app and its features.

The application provides visual access to your entire fleet of vehicles, fleet administration and

creating different types of reports that give an accurate representation of vehicle operation

therefore reducing fuel and operational costs, increasing vehicle and driver safety and making

fleet management a whole lot easier. Apart from tracking, the app can provide you with a

multitude of different parameters regarding the vehicles’ status (speed, ignition statuses,

information from temperature and fuel sensors etc.).

SOLUTION

Live Tracking is an app feature that shows vehicles on the map in real time, accompanied

by several stats and parameters useful for fleet control. Live Tracking also gives you

information about the vehicle’s ignition system meaning you can keep track of the vehicle’s

movement and ignition status (if the vehicle is turned on or off) at all times.

Live Tracking

Historical reconstruction is a useful tool for reconstructing a vehicle’s past movement for

a certain time period.

Historical Reconstruction

This section of the app is used to draw regions (or edit existing ones) that can later be

used for tracking vehicles’ movement through those regions.

Regions

This feature is used to draw and visualize routes on the map. It is useful for keeping track

of vehicles that have predetermined routes of movement, visiting the same points of

interest periodically.

Routes

- Defining different types of maintenance operations that are performed on the vehicles.

- List of all the maintenance operations that are already performed on the vehicles in the

fleet.

- Report for keeping track of fuel costs for each vehicle as well as some other useful info

such as state where the fuel was purchased/filled (to be used in an IFTA report).

Maintenance

- Vehicles - a list of all the vehicles in the fleet that you are allowed to track.

- Drivers - This is a display of all the drivers that have been entered into the application.

- Odometer - view the current odometer state (total mileage) of the vehicles.

- Assign vehicle - In this section you can assign vehicles to their designated drivers and

also view all the vehicles that have already been assigned. Each assignation is displayed

with its time period, name of the driver and vehicle’s company number.

Fleet

- Users and groups - a list of all the users (entered by the administrator) from the company

that are granted access to the web app.

- Company settings - In this section you can add or edit the information about your

company. Apart from general information such as: Company name, address, contact

info, you can also select the working hours and working days.

- Non-working days - This section of the app is used to keep track of the non-working days

of the company workers and also the vehicles they’ve been assigned. You are shown the

entire non-working days history which you can sort by either a vehicle or a driver.

Administration

- Speeding reports:

Speeding – above road speed limit - contains data about the number of speeding

(driving over the speed limit) depending on the roads’ speed limit.

Speeding – above permitted vehicle speed - contains data about the number of

speeding depending on the vehicles’ maximum moving speed allowed by the company.

Idle time and speeding - This report has 2 parts: 1. Idle Time – time spent idle (not

moving) i.e. vehicle speed of 0km/h, regardless of the vehicle’s ignition status (on/off).

2. Speeding – this part of the contains data regarding the date and time when speeding

occurred (vehicle moving at a speed greater than the user selected speed) as well as

the vehicle’s speed.

Reporting

- Mileage reports:

Mileage per vehicle - contains data about the vehicles’ mileage in a given time period.

Mileage per driver - contains data about every driver’s mileage in a given time period.

Mileage during/out of business hours - This report contains data about vehicles’

mileage during the working hours as well as off working hours and during holidays.

- Average Speed - gives you data about vehicles’ average speed over a selected time

period. For average speed calculations, only data where the vehicle’s speed is over

10km/h are taken into account.

- IFTA report - This section of the app is used to generate an IFTA Quarterly Fuel Use Tax

Schedule (Form IFTA-101, to be attached to a Form IFTA-100) using the data from the

tracking devices and data manually entered in the app. This standardized form is used

when filing for a tax return, depending on the amount of fuel used in each state (in the

USA and Canada), type of fuel etc.

- Routes with geocoding - This is an app feature used to determine a vehicle’s movement

routes without using user predefined routes. Through the geocoding process, the app

generates detailed data about the locations visited by the selected vehicle. In order to

generate this report, you need to select a vehicle and a time period.

- Routes report - report which tells you which points have been visited by the vehicle in

question, at what time, how much time it spent there etc.

- Regions report - This report gives you information about vehicles’ movement in the user

predefined regions.

- RFID report - This is a report on driver authentication by RFID cards. Vehicles equipped

with RFID authentication devices (RFID readers) can only be used by approved drivers.

The authentication is done with unique RFID cards for each driver.

- Provided fuel costs - monitor the vehicles’ provided fuel consumption.

- Fuel Probe – gives you information about the vehicle’s fuel status and consumption, using

the data from the vehicle’s fuel probe. This only applies to vehicles with a fuel probe

installed.

- Temperatures report - utilizes data from the temperature sensors (if there are vehicles

equipped with such). It is useful for companies that deal with distributing temperature

sensitive cargo (frozen foods for example).

GPS MINING

The application utilizes data

from active card readers

(RFID). It can collect, process

and store that data in the

central database. Coal

transporting vehicles are

equipped with active RFID

cards and their movement is

tracked by the card readers

installed along the vehicles’

route. A transport order for

the desired vehicle must be

created in the application

beforehand and there are

predefined rules for the

route (maximum travel time

between 2 points for

example). This is used in

conjunction with the data

from the AVL device. Only if

the route has been properly

followed will the system

allow for the coal load to be

measured. If certain

irregularities occur, the

system will not allow

measurement until they are

resolved.

Vehicle route traceability

for coal transporting

vehicles

This system is designed to collect and

display data from the measuring scales.

Each scale is connected to the system

and transfers data in real time which

allows for uninterrupted monitoring. All

the parameters generated by the scale

itself are readily available to the system.

The system is designed to take

appropriate action such as: alarming the

client about irregularities, informing the

support center about errors occurring

etc.

Furthermore, the system can control

each traffic light that grants access to the

scales. This is done in coordination with

the route control module and by

checking the route’s rules and RFID data.

If the vehicle has followed the route (and

its rules) passing each consecutive point

in the planned time span, the traffic light

will light up in green color, granting the

vehicle access to the scales. If any

irregularities have been recorded, the

traffic light will light up in red color.

Weight measurement of purchased coal from coal mining systems

A separate module as a

building unit of the system is

the part dedicated to

controlling the route rules -

route points with RFID

readers.

The data from the RFID

readers are sent to the

database and are processed

and stored by the system.
