The Science Behind GPS

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a combination of 27 satellites that transmit signals to GPS receivers all over the globe.
By measuring the travel time of the radio signals between the receiver and the satellite, the distance between the GPS receiver and the satellite can be determined. Here's the formula:

[distance] = [speed] * [travel time]
By combining, or triangulating, the distance from the three or four nearest satellites over time, location, speed, and direction of the GPS receivers can be determined.
This location data becomes useful for fleet owners when it’s aggregated for all their vehicles and presented on a map and/or in reports.

Active vs. Passive Tracking

Active: the data from the GPS receiver is transmitted every 60 seconds to a remote user at regular intervals. This gives you real-time location information.

Passive: all the GPS data is stored in the receiver and must be downloaded once all the vehicles return to the office

Real-time tracking has become the most popular method despite its higher cost because of the huge benefits of having real-time information to make on-demand management decisions.

Covert or Open?

Some vehicle tracking companies offer units that have no exposed wires or antennas, allowing for covert installation. Some business owners prefer covert installations to keep behavior honest while providing subtle coaching when problems are detected.
Other business owners and fleet managers prefer to keep the tracking out in the open and let employees know that they're watching.

Uses of GPS Tracking

While Most Industries Use Fleet Tracking for their Trucks, Vans, Semis, etc…
·         Construction/Paving/Landscaping
·         Plumbers/Electricians
·         Wholesaler/Supplier/Distributors
·         Emergency/Repair Services

Telematics and Cargo: Cracking down on theft!


Telematics and Cargo: Cracking down on theft

Ursula Sautter of “Telematics Update”, explores how telematics can help prevent cargo theft
Cargo theft has been around as long as people have transported raw materials and manufactured goods from one place to another. Unfortunately, as the methods of freight carriage became more complex, so did the criminal methods focused on them.

Cargo theft in Europe costs businesses more than 8.2 billion per year. And that's just for reported incidents; experts believe official statistics reflect only a small percentage of actual thefts. In the US, the FBI estimates, the figure has reached $30 billion a year and is likely to increase further. Most of the goods—electronics, pharma products, clothing, footwear, cigarettes—are stolen from trucks but sometimes also from shipping containers, cargo lanes and warehouses.

And cargo theft has many victims: Aside from the direct monetary loss, shippers face indirect costs for goods replacement, higher insurance premiums as well as loss of reputation. State and local governments lose sales tax revenues. The good news is, under the aegis of the Transport Asset Protection Association (TAPA), a growing number of producers and manufacturers, logistics companies, freight insurers, security firms, supply-chain consultants and other stakeholders in Europe, the Americas, and Africa are using telematics to address the threat.
"By sharing information, establishing ever more stringent security standards and lobbying legislators and law enforcers," says TAPA board member Luc van Herck, a transport security specialist at Nike, "we aim to identify target areas where losses occur most frequently, share industry best practices to prevent further incidents, and gain official support."

Real-time intelligence
The organization's Web-based Incident Information Service (IIS), for instance, continuously captures and shares online data on where a theft has happened to a TAPA member, what kind of load was stolen, and which modus operandi was used so that other TAPA members can use that real-time intelligence "to avoid incident hotspots," says van Herck, "protect their goods in transit and, if required, to report and trace stolen property." Additional data comes from insurance claims and law enforcement statistics.

Since the system is based on Google maps, it is easy to use: incident locations are marked on a road map and haulers or shippers only need to check whether that spot lies on their fleet route. TAPA's Trucking Security Requirements (TSR) specify the minimum acceptable safety standards for road transport of valuable products and materials and the methods that should be used by shippers and logistics providers to maintain them. The Freight Security Requirements (FRS), in turn, specifies corresponding standards and procedures for goods handling and storing in transit.

In addition to locks that prevent the separation of tractor and trailer and brake release/shut down devices, there are plenty of other telematics tech that can help. “Geo Fencing” devices can trigger an alarm if a rig travels outside its predetermined route or enters high-risk areas. GPS-enabled track and trace solutions can locate stolen vehicles. Both, especially when equipped with anti-jam mechanisms, may significantly improve vehicle or load recovery processes, especially handy when stolen property leaves a state or country jurisdiction.

Beyond the driver's cab
Yet security mechanisms are no longer just found in the driver's cab. Holistic telematics security units like Novacom Europe's externally powered Vwise, for instance, provides real-time information and analytics about truck, trailer and load, including a whole array of wireless sensors placed at strategic points in or on the tractor-trailer. When one of these concealed devices registers certain pre-defined events—a door opening, a lock unsealed, a curtain tampered with—the unit's modem sends out an alarm to the network-operating center via GSM/GPRS or satellite. The center can then alert the end user.

Such start-to-finish monitoring systems are particularly important these days, says Willem Duijf, sales and marketing director at Novacom Europe, because many of the trailers shuttling thousands of miles "across Europe to take cargo from point of supply chain inception to destination are passed on from one hauler to another, left unattended on ferries, and picked up by yet another carrier company again."

Tracking Freight
Even the freight itself can be tracked and traced. Affixed to pallet, crate, carton, or even individual items, always-on M2M sensors can monitor asset condition (factors such as ambient and product temperature, air quality, weight, lighting) and location along the entire supply chain, keeping fleet managers informed of any unauthorized or unscheduled events. (For more on M2M, see Telematics and M2M: New business models and Telematics and M2M communications: Creating the Internet of things.)

"Any chain of security devices can be sabotaged or destroyed by criminals," admits Duijf, "but we are trying to make this as difficult as possible by creating better asset protection, detection, protection, and visibility." All that is an ongoing process, he adds: "Technology is evolving as we speak, getting more and more comprehensive. It's a cat-and-mouse game."

What counts most in the end, says van Herck, is not the technology. Instead, it is people's 100% commitment to working "in concert to accurately adopt and audit" the standards. "You can have all the alarms you want," he argues, "but if you don't get people to implement and respond to them, they won't work."

So far, TAPA's efforts have proved remarkably successful. Members who comply with the organization's standards have seen a reduction in their overall losses, especially compared to the rest of the industry, according to van Herck. Since it introduced TSR, Nike "has been able to reduce the number of cargo theft incidents by 90%."

Telematics: A Definition

Telematics is the integration of wireless communications, vehicle monitoring systems, and location devices. The term telematics combines “telecommunications” and “informatics.” Literally defined, telematics is the integration of wireless communications, vehicle monitoring systems, and location devices. Telematics has become a tool to monitor idling time, help reduce bad driving behaviors, and eliminate unauthorized vehicle use. Vehicle telematics systems also are increasingly used to provide remote diagnostics. A vehicle’s built-in system identifies a mechanical or electronic problem, and the telematics package can automatically transmit this information to the vehicle manufacturer, fleet manager, or service organization.
GPS, AVL, MRM, WiFi, and RFID are just a few acronyms representing telematics systems and technologies. The growing list is only one indication of the expanding use and variety of applications telematics offer.

Telematics and UPS

Telematics Sensor-Equipped Trucks Help UPS Control Costs

Telematics helps the delivery company determine a truck’s performance and condition, as well as identify ways drivers can make small adjustments that yield major results.

July 2010, Automotive Fleet - Feature
By Shelley Mika
Known for its speed and efficiency, UPS recently announced changes that will improve both. By the end of 2010, the company plans to operate more than 22,000 delivery trucks at 144 locations (including two in Canada) equipped with telematics technology.

An Old Program Learns New Tricks

Since 2008, UPS piloted the technology on 1,500 delivery trucks across the country, testing the equipment in various geographies and climates. In 2009, the company installed telematics in roughly 10,000 vehicles and plans to expand the program to another 10,000 this year. That makes nearly a quarter of the company's 95,000 delivery vehicles equipped with telematics.

As part of the initiative, UPS is installing GPS tracking equipment as well as sensors in key areas, such as brakes and engine box, and on the exterior. These devices will help UPS track the location of its delivery trucks as well as identify ways in which drivers can make adjustments and improve their performance based on collected data. Two key areas the company plans to improve are idle time and route efficiency.

"Telematics isn't new to UPS. We've been using telematics for more than 20 years to improve the efficiency and safety of our tractor-trailer fleet," Donna Longino, a UPS spokesperson, said. "What is new is the proprietary information and sophisticated algorithms we developed to analyze the rich stream of data captured by more than 200 sensors on our delivery trucks."

As drivers complete their routes the UPS telematics equipment captures streams of data via a 900 MHz radio and sends it in real-time to servers for analysis. At the end of the day, drivers return to their centers, and data is uploaded and sent to the UPS data center in Alpharetta, Ga. The telematics devices capture data on more than 200 elements, including speed, RPM, oil pressure, seat belt use, number of times the truck is placed in reverse, and idling time.
The charts shown are to illustrate the range of telematics data reporting solutions from Geotab and do not contain UPS specific information.
Telematics help UPS determine a truck's performance and condition, as well as identify ways drivers can make small adjustments that yield major results. Together, improved data and driver coaching help reduce fuel consumption, emissions, and maintenance costs, while improving customer service and driver safety.

"UPS is always looking for ways to improve efficiency and customer service, slash energy consumption and emissions, and make our drivers safer on the road," said Mike Hance, vice president of fleet operations. "We realized this cutting-edge technology enables quick, fact-based decisions to improve these areas."

Idling Reduced & Maintenance Improved

So far, the telematics initiative has yielded positive results, including reduced idling and fuel consumption, maintenance costs, and waste, as well as increased safety. Through telematics, UPS reduced idling by 15 minutes per driver per day, totaling 25 gallons of fuel per driver per year. While that reduction may seem a small change, on the large scale, it's a major improvement.

"When telematics is fully deployed in the small-package delivery fleet in the U.S., the reduction of idle time by 15 minutes per driver per day would save 1.4 million gallons of fuel annually," Longino said. "Multiply results like that by more than 90,000 drivers worldwide, and you can see the potential."
Maintenance is another key area in which UPS will benefit from the program. Prior to installing telematics, the company performed maintenance at regular time intervals, regardless of a truck's mileage or use. Now, UPS mechanics base maintenance decisions on the actual vehicle use and performance.

Telematics also helps identify which parts to replace. For instance, UPS found, in some cases, mechanics were replacing fuel injectors when the truck simply required an inexpensive "O-ring."

Because UPS can more accurately determine the right time to pull trucks off the road for maintenance, the company can reduce downtime and wasted maintenance expenses. Telematics also allows UPS to more accurately allocate replacement dollars, as the system helps identify trucks performing less efficiently, or when to simply place a vehicle on a shorter route. 

Safety is another critical area of improvement. While UPS already has an exemplary safety record, the company didn't shy away from improving it. One key metric tracked through telematics is seat belt use. Test sites showed that drivers wore their seat belts a nearly perfect 99.8 percent, up from 98 percent.

Likewise, providing drivers with information on the number of times they placed trucks in reverse - behavior UPS drivers are trained to avoid for safety reasons - reduced this behavior by 25 percent.

In addition to reducing idle time, telematics systems provide other environmental benefits. By helping UPS optimize dispatch planning and driver routine, the system reduces overall driver miles, cuts fuel consumption, and reduces emissions. Further, by optimizing vehicle performance and improving maintenance, telematics help UPS increase the useful life of parts and decrease the disposal of parts, including lead acid batteries and tires, Longino said.

Training & Information Management Keys to Success

With a large-scale implementation of telematics in its delivery truck fleet, UPS anticipated and planned for challenges. Hance said two areas were critical to the company's success: training staff and managing the information.
"We have some of the best-trained drivers in the world, and they are really committed to doing an excellent job. We find that quite often when a supervisor uses the data to coach drivers on improving safety, service, and performance, the response is very positive," Hance said.

In addition to training drivers how to improve driving behavior based on the reports, other UPS employees are also trained how to employ it to get the most from the telematics investment.

"Telematics is information-rich. Our reports and data are profiled to pinpoint what is important to impact results," Hance said. "We invested in training to ensure we leverage this technology to effectively impact service, safety, and cost."

UPS plans to continue using telematics technology, with the next major initiative focused on reducing idling time on its LTL (less than truckload) fleet at UPS Freight. Hance said telematics technology is also used to monitor several test vehicles, such as hybrid electric, hydraulic hybrid, and automatic transmission tractors, in the UPS fleet for efficiency, performance, and reliability.

Lynx Telematics and Fleet Management



Lynx Telematics has developed a functionality in its Fleet Equipment Monitoring System, a wireless monitoring and remote tracking solution for off-road equipment and over-the-road trucks.

The new Lynx Telematics technology features include remote access to and real-time delivery of diagnostic fault codes, fuel consumption, idle vs. work time analysis, engine direct hour meter/odometer readings, as well as temperatures and pressures.


The solution allows managers to wirelessly monitor all of their assets from an Internet based software package. The Lynx Fleet Management integration enables fleet owners to remotely receive engine data across multiple brands, directly from their properly equipped machines and larger trucks. This data includes fault codes, which are wirelessly transmitted and archived on the software for remote asset diagnosis from any Internet connected device. Additional machine data includes fuel burn, engine run time hours, idling hours, and RPM. The production metrics are used to properly assess working time and curb excessive idle time. The Lynx Telematics technology also transmits machine health conditions such as critical lamp statuses, temperatures and in real time, so corrective action may be taken to prevent a catastrophic failure.

Telematics is a powerful tool for effective fleet management; however, there is a fear that unique factory installed systems and the deluge of data end can up creating more work for the equipment owner.  

At Lynx Telematics, we have streamlined that process by delivering pertinent fleet-wide information through a single interface and automated reports. and in reality actually reduce the stress and work load of fleet or school bus managers while reducing costs and preserving and extending the life of the fleet.
