Automatic vehicle location GPS based system

Autor/autori: Eugen POP, PhD

Rezumat: Sistemele automate pentru determinarea pozitiei vehiculelor reprezinta un instrument foarte util pentru gestionarea parcului auto. Operatorii de transport terestru sau maritim au posibilitatea de a cunoaste (determina) locatia vehicului transportator. Un sistem automat pentru determinarea pozitiei vehiculelor, in general, consta dintr-un dispecer (transport controler), care este conectat printr-un sistem de comunicatii de voce si date cu terminalele mobile instalate pe vehicule. Terminalele mobile trimit datele privind pozitia lor catre dispecerat unde pozitiile vehiculelor sunt afisate pe un sistem informational geografic (GIS), folosind o harta digitala.

Abstract: Automatic Vehicle Location systems are a very usefull tool for vehicle fleet management. The transport or shipping operators have the possibility to know (determine) their vehicle location. An Automatic Vehicle Location system generally consists of a dispatcher (transport controller) which achieves voice and data communications with mobile terminals installed on vehicles. The mobile terminals send their position data to the dispatcher. At the dispatcher, the vehicles position are displayed on a Geographical Information System (GIS) map. Using this informations, the transport operators can also offer location based services to their clients.
