Connected Vehicle Data

Using telematics devices, cars can distribute data for many purposes for an end-user. Car data is created by electrical sensors linked to the ECU or Electronic Control Unit. An ECU is linked to an onboard telematics device which transmits live data. A user in a central location receives this data over the air, with an end interface that can be configured in a way that works for their business.Many attributes of a car can be transmitted live or at set intervals using GPS and mobile data networks.

Using car data, fleet management companies analyse their vehicles to help reduce costs, prevent maintenance issues and schedule service appointments in advance. Governments and councils can use car technical data to better manage traffic. Insurance companies can have real-world use cases for their customers and the introduction of smart cities with connected cars results in more efficient infrastructure. Most importantly, emergency services receive live vehicle data to accurately locate an accident, with automatic triggers to call ambulances if the vehicle senses it is in a severe accident.

What Is Maintenance Data?

High Mobility’s advanced API pulls a wide range of maintenance data points. The braking system needs regular inspection, with fluid changes. Services and due dates are all part of maintenance data too. With dates for the next oil change, the distance until the next oil change and status of the last inspection can all be housed in the vehicle's control modules.

Maintenance data keeps track of the e-call teleservice operations and logs the history of when these calls were made. Understanding when a vehicle is in an accident or if a vehicle is overdue a service.

Use Cases

When fleet managers want to track the status of the vehicle, they can easily display the live mileage, service records and fluid levels to see if the car is fully functioning. Also, preventative maintenance and booking services in advance can be beneficial for fleet managers who want to operate efficiently. Maintenance data also prevents excessive repair bills in the long run and protects warranty claims if a part fails.
