GPRS/GSMhttp://www.itre.ncsu.eduThe Data Levels (min 1Hz Resolution)71st LevelRaw DataAll available PIDs from OBD as: speed (odometer), rpm, engine temperature, accelerator position, error codes, VIN (most of them on a 1 Hz basis)From additional sensors: location (GPS), 3 axis accelerometer (up to 50 Hz local), altitude (barometer) 2nd LevelProcessed Datafuel consumption (i2D algorithms), CO2 and other pollutant emissions, engine cold temperature points, slope, distances, driving periods, driving events (Stops, predefined alerts over speed, rpm, accelerations), average speed, energy efficiency for each triptrip mapping and reconstruction, benchmarking, driving indicators, driving learning support, Driving Profiling, why and where are you spending fuel, http://www.itre.ncsu.eduRaw Data: OBD Speed vs. Acceleration8

http://www.itre.ncsu.eduDatabase at NC State ~2 million records of data seconds are collected each month, each having 40 data fields from about 10-15 vehicles driven by student/ staff volunteers About ~3,500 miles of travel (low use)Consumes ~200MB of memory (xlsx format)Available to NC State in a SINGLE table formatHard to perform queries, changes, etc.NCSU broke down the table into several tables connected to each other in a SINGLE databaseMore efficient query and searchIs needed to perform faster visualization11http://www.itre.ncsu.eduOther DatabasesIndividual users and fleet managers access website https://app.i2d.co/Basic configuration of unit, vehicle, passwordUser friendly reports, visualizations, etc
