The stored time on a vehicle is important information. From this, several vehicle functions feed from vehicle time data including journey information such as time travelled and arrival times.

When sending data over the air using telematics, vehicle time data needs to be accurate as it forms part of the data package. When users remotely access a vehicle, they get an overview of journey time, location data, start and stop time and more. Any discrepancies with the vehicle time data mean information will be inaccurate and could be void when analysing a fleet.
