A vehicle tracking system combines the installation of an electronic device in a vehicle, or fleet of vehicles, with purpose-designed computer software to enable the owner or a third party to track the vehicle's location, collecting data in the process. Vehicle tracking systems use Global Positioning System (GPS) technology for locating the vehicle, Vehicle information can be viewed on electronic maps via the Internet or specialized software. Where & why is it useful?We have developed the VTS for essential commodity transportation management and is essentially a social justice support intent for Civic administrations. Currently Kerosene oil tankers are being tracked What is the process of this work we follow at STP?We get indents from District Administration and Kerosene oil tanker owners purchase the unit directly from Park. Our incubatee installs it and the management is done by the BPO established at the Growth Lab. Currently the position and route & geo-fencing of specific tankers are in place and very soon the product will be used to transmit level of kerosene in the tanker. Who all are using it as of now, our clientele?Kerosene Tanker Dealers in District Supply Office What are the future plans?Extend the facility to other fleet management options like tour operators, Fire, Solid Waste Management Water Supply. A personnel tracker is also planned.
Science and Technology Park through its incubation program has introduced a Vehicle Tracking System that combines the installation of an electronic device in a vehicle, or fleet of vehicles, with purpose-designed computer software to enable the owner or a third party to track the vehicle's location, collecting data in the process. It uses Global Positioning System (GPS) technology for locating the vehicle, vehicle information can be viewed on electronic maps via the internet.The Facility is being considered as a key input of e-governance initiatives in Urban Local Bodies for Essential Commodity Movement, Public Transport, Police and Security Vehicle Fleet Management etc . A robust Vehicle Locator unit which has been specially designed for use in Indian working environment is installed in each vehicle. This unit has a GPS chip which receives precise information of latitude, longitude and speed of that vehicle from satellites; it also has a SIM card which enables it to send this information over the cell phone GPRS network to the server located at the Base Station. A web based software application enables the designated supervisors to log into the Base Station server from their own computers and use digital maps to view vehicles & preset various parameters such as routes, speeds, spots etc. to be followed by the drivers. If there are any deviations from the parameters set by the supervisor, the software sends alerts by SMS to designated persons. it also produces a number of useful management reports on periodic basis.
Role of Administrator: The user may designate an administrator who is required to create and update a database of various parameters such as:
The above database is desired to be kept updated at all times since many of the reports generated by the system would be referring to the above data. Role of Supervisor : The supervisors who have been designated by the administrator as authorized persons are required to create and update various operational details such as:
The above database must be kept updated at all times since many of the reports generated by the system would be referring to the above data. The Vehicle Tracking System is designed and integrated to provide unparalleled features & alerts to the user such as:
Above reports can be generated either vehicle wise or driver wise. Reports can be obtained for any specified period between a specified start date and specified end date. The default period for some reports is 1 day ( 00.00 Hrs to 00.00 Hrs ) while for others it is 1 week.
