Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for the organization, management, and graphical display of multiple logically related entities. In some embodiments, the systems and methods provide the real-time display of status and location information for a fleet of tracked vehicles. In some embodiments, the systems and methods permit the automatic clustering of assets based on a user's view of an underlying map. In some embodiments, the assets are vehicles that are a part of a managed fleet. In some embodiments, the assets are logically arranged into clusters of like assets. In some embodiments, the clusters provide graphical indications of status or class information of their underlying assets.

Abstract: Vehicle management systems and associated processes can consider energy consumption when selecting routes for fleet vehicles. Vehicle management systems and associated processes are described that, in certain embodiments, evaluate vehicle energy usage based on factors such as terrain or elevation, vehicle characteristics, driver characteristics, road conditions, traffic, speed limits, stop time, turn information, traffic information, and weather information, and the like. The features described herein may also be implemented for non-fleet vehicles, such as in personal vehicle navigation systems.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for providing an automated verification and analysis of vehicle inspection reports to a vehicle management system. Among other features, the vehicle management system can determine the type of vehicle to be inspected during a vehicle inspection report, provide customized reports associated with the identified vehicle, and provide automatic analysis and verification that the vehicle inspection report was completed in accordance with the defined parameters of the vehicle inspection report.

Abstract: Customization features for providing users with the ability to customize various aspects of a vehicle management system are described. These customization features can include functionality for generating custom reports based on vehicle parameters, including diagnostic codes. The customization features can also include features for customizing alerts based on vehicle parameters and features for customizing nomenclature in the vehicle management system.

Abstract: A route scheduling system for a vehicle or fleet of vehicles can recalculate a scheduled route based on input received after the formulation and/or dispatch of the initial route. The additional inputs can be used for recalculation and changes in route selection, which may include a variety of inputs, such as weather conditions, traffic conditions, customer needs, vehicle inventory, and emergency situations. The recalculation of the routes can allow for route selection to be performed in real-time in order for fleets and vehicles to optimize the allocation of resources.

Abstract: System and methods are disclosed for gathering vehicle data from a vehicle engine computer installed in an engine of a vehicle and a plurality of sensors disposed about the vehicle and providing functionality for a third-party to install and then execute custom scripts within a telematics application to change default functionalities of the telematics application when processing the vehicle data.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a system for presenting fleet vehicle operation information in standardized forms includes a telematics module and a data standardizing module. The telematics module receives measurements related to operation of multiple vehicles in a fleet. The data standardizing module, using a first technique, estimates a first value for a parameter for at least one vehicle of the multiple vehicles based at least on the measurements. Further, the data standardizing module, using a second technique, estimates a second value for the parameter for at least one vehicle of the multiple vehicles based at least on the measurements. The second technique including using some measurement to estimate the second value different from the measurements used to estimate the first value according to the first technique. The data standardizing module outputs one or both of the first value and the second value for presentation to a user.

Abstract: System and methods are disclosed for gathering vehicle data from a vehicle engine computer installed in an engine of a vehicle and a plurality of sensors disposed about the vehicle and providing functionality for a third-party to install and then execute custom scripts within a telematics application to change default functionalities of the telematics application when processing the vehicle data.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a system can determine potential data quality issues in a database. The system applies quality assignment rules to a data set. The quality assignment rules access data from the data set or calculate one or more values from data entries of the data set. Data entries or determined values that satisfy the quality assignment rules receive one or more scores. The system then presents a subset of the data set based on the determined one or more scores. Accordingly, a user of the system can determine the source of the data quality issues such as a broken or miscalibrated data gathering device.

Abstract: The present invention provides a technique for building natural language parsers by implementing a country and/or jurisdiction specific set of training data that is automatically converted during a build phase to a respective predictive model, i.e., an automated country specific natural language parser. The predictive model can be used without the training data to quantify any input address. This model may be included as part of a larger Geographic Information System (GIS) data-set or as a stand alone quantifier. The build phase may also be run on demand and the resultant predictive model kept in temporary storage for immediate use.
