What is Telematics?
Telematics is a combination of telecommunication and information processing. Telematics in vehicles uses GPS and other telematics devices usually to track vehicle location and its speed. The telematics devices capture the information from the GPS which is transmitted to a server and then it is communicated to the device of the fleet manager. All this information transfer happened using the wireless network.
What are the benefits of vehicle telematics?
- It provides real-time visibility about the movement and location of the vehicles in a fleet making it easy for fleet managers to track them.
- It provides diagnostics about the vehicle engine like fuel consumption, and engine load, and also identifies any faults so that timely maintenance and repairs can be undertaken.
- Telematics devices provide insights into the driving habits of the drivers. The drivers can be trained accordingly to encourage safe driving behavior.
- It helps in controlling costs by providing information about route performance. In case the driver is stuck in traffic then the fleet manager can communicate with the driver and guide them with alternative routes.
