SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ASSESSING VEHICLE AND VEHICLE OPERATOR EFFICIENCY

摘要

Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to a fleet management computer system for assessing vehicle efficiency. According to various embodiments, the fleet management computer system is configured for receiving and assessing vehicle telematics data in order to determine an idle percentage of engine run time value representing the percentage of the vehicle's engine run time during which the vehicle's engine was idling during the one or more time periods. In addition, the fleet management computer system may be configured for assessing vehicle telematics data in order to identify segment of engine idle time and generate a graphical display indicating various attributes of the identified idle time segments. The idle time percentage and idle time segments generated by the system can be used to assess the efficiency of vehicles and/or vehicle operators in an associated fleet.

主权项

1. A method for assessing vehicle efficiency, the method comprising:
receiving, via one or more processors, vehicle telematics data indicative of one or more vehicle dynamics for a vehicle during one or more time periods; identifying, via the one or more processors, engine idle time segments based on the vehicle telematics data, each of the identified engine idle time segments representing a period of time during which the vehicle's engine was idling; determining, via the one or more processors, the location of the vehicle when each identified engine idle time segment occurred; and providing, via the one or more processors, for display via a graphical user interface:
at least one evaluation results display indicating one or more of the identified engine idle time segments; andat least one geographical map;wherein the graphical user interface (a) enables a user to select at least one of the one or more identified engine idle time segments indicated in the evaluation results display, and (b) in response to the user selecting the at least one of the one or more identified engine idle time segments, indicates the location of the at least one user-selected engine idle time segment on the geographical map.
