Abstract: According to various embodiments, a fleet management system is provided for capturing, storing, and analyzing telematics data to improve fleet management operations. The fleet management system may be used, for example, by a shipping entity (e.g., a common carrier) to capture telematics data from a plurality of vehicle sensors located on various delivery vehicles and to analyze the captured telematics data. In particular, various embodiments of the fleet management system are configured to analyze engine idle data in relation to other telematics data in order to identify inefficiencies, safety hazards, and theft hazards in a driver's delivery process. The fleet management system may also be configured to assess various aspects of vehicle performance, such as vehicle travel delays and vehicle speeds. These analytical capabilities allow the fleet management system to assist fleet managing entities, or other entities, in analyzing driver performance, reducing fuel and maintenance costs, and improving route planning.

Abstract translation: 根据各种实施例，提供了用于捕获，存储和分析远程信息处理数据以改善车队管理操作的车队管理系统。 车队管理系统可以例如由运输实体（例如，公共运营商）使用，以从位于各种运送车辆上的多个车辆传感器捕获远程信息处理数据，并分析所捕获的远程信息数据。 特别地，车队管理系统的各种实施例被配置为分析与其他远程信息数据相关的引擎空闲数据，以便识别驾驶员的交付过程中的低效率，安全隐患和盗窃危险。 车队管理系统还可以被配置为评估车辆性能的各个方面，例如车辆行驶延迟和车辆速度。 这些分析功能允许车队管理系统协助车队管理实体或其他实体分析驾驶员绩效，降低燃油和维护成本，并改进路线规划。
