System and method for detecting and reporting irregularities in fuel efficiency data

摘要

A system for detecting and reporting irregularities in fuel efficiency data vehicles. The system includes a database and a data processing mechanism. The data base includes fueling event data, vehicle identification data and data pertaining to an operational parameter. The data processing mechanism calculates a vehicle specific fuel efficiency statistic, compares the calculated statistic to a previous statistic employing a predetermined rule to determine if the newly calculated statistic is unreliable and prepares a report which indicates unreliable fuel efficiency statistics by vehicle. Further disclosed is a method for generating reports which indicate unreliable fuel efficiency statistics by vehicle.
