System and method for data correlation within a telematics communication system

摘要

The present invention provides a method of operating a telematics enabled mobile vehicle communication system. The method includes receiving vehicle diagnostic information at a relational database and analyzing the received vehicle diagnostic information. The method further includes identifying data correlations of interest identifying common elements associated with one or more specific situations based on the analyzed vehicle diagnostic information and identifying at least one client related to the data correlations. The method may further include distributing the vehicle diagnostic information associated with the identified data correlations and the identified clients. The step of identifying data correlations of interest based on the analyzed vehicle diagnostic information may include receiving diagnostic criteria, applying the diagnostic criteria to the analyzed vehicle diagnostic information, and determining whether one or more diagnostic information groups of the analyzed vehicle diagnostic information correlate to the diagnostic criteria.
