System for mapping occurrences of conditions in a transport route

摘要

A system for mapping occurrences of conditions along a transport route is provided. The transport route is travelled by a vehicle storing cargo. The system includes at least one mobile sensing station mounted on the vehicle traversing the transport route. The mobile sensing station detects occurrences of the conditions along the transport route to the vehicle. At least one of the conditions indicates that the vehicle is influenced by the conditions. The sensing station receives positional data, correlates the positional data with corresponding occurrences of the conditions, and transmits the correlated data. The system also includes a central controller that receives the correlated data from the mobile sensing station, determines responsive to the correlated data a position on the transport route at which the occurrences of the conditions are detected, and determines responsive to at least one of the position and the transport route, a party responsible/appropriate to be notified of the condition and notifying same of the condition.
