A vehicle fleet management information system for identification of location
and
direction of movement of each vehicle in the fleet in real-time and automatic communication
directly with management offices to report its location and heading, and status
of predetermined events in which the vehicle may be engaged. One example is a cement
delivery truck which monitors location, speed and status information such as start
pour, pouring, end pour, wash and leave job, and automatically transmits this information
with a management office without requiring affirmative action by the vehicle operator.
