Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for gathering product level profile information from different, spaced apart fueling locations networked together to a server through the Internet. A RLM monitors the data wire between the dispensers and dispenser controller to determine the amount of fuel dispensed and it stores this information in memory. The RLM is further interfaced to the ATG to determine the amount of product remaining in the USTs, and it tracts fuel additions to the USTs from delivery trucks. This information is stored in a data file in the RLM, and is linked together along with a site identifier to form a data packet for transmission. A communication network interconnects the RLMs of the remote fueling sites to a server. The server maintains a first database of routing numbers for the remote sites, and a second database of product level information for each remote site. The server individually polls the remote sites to obtain the data packet.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for gathering product level profile information from the POS of different, spaced apart fueling locations networked together to a server through the Internet. The POS monitors the dispensers through a pump control center to determine the amount of fuel dispensed and the ATG to determine the amount of product remaining in the USTs, and it tracts fuel additions to the USTs from delivery trucks. This information is stored in a data file in the POS, and is linked together along with a site identifier to form a data packet for transmission. A communication network interconnects the POS of the remote fueling sites to a server. The server maintains a first database of routing numbers for the remote sites, and a second database of product level information for each remote site. The server individually polls the remote sites to obtain the data packet.
