GPSTrackIt Announces Revolutionary New Analytics Dashboard

GPSTrackit’s Fleet Manager Software now Features an Analytics Dashboard. The Analytics Dashboard enables fleet managers to monitor and review fleet performance by reviewing historical data in a series of charts and graphs.

August 27, 2013, Temecula, CA -- GPSTrackIt’s Fleet Manager is already a robust application providing fleet owners and managers with a comprehensive suite of integrated tools.  The system delivers real-time GPS vehicle tracking, vehicle maintenance scheduling, and a wide range of alerts. The Analytics Dashboard brings to the system a new array of powerful and flexible capabilities.
 

"It puts the information fleet managers and owners need at their fingertips,” said Eddie Bermudez, GPSTrackIt’s Product Manager.  “We already provide all the historical data via the reports system…  This new feature brings that data to life with dynamic graphics.”

The dashboard displays up to six charts.  They can be configured as bar charts or pie charts.  Each chart can focus on particular issues important to fleet owners, managers and dispatchers: Idle Time, Drive Time, Stop Time, Speeding and Mileage.

“The charts can be configured to show data for all units or a single group,” explained Bermudez. ”Or a chart can compare groups by displaying their data side-by-side using different colors.”

In addition, three composite charts are available; Engine Time, which monitors idle time and driving time; Driving Overview, which monitors idle time and driving time and stop time; Idle Stop, which monitors idle time and stop time. The time metric determines which historical data is used.  Options available are week, month, quarter, and year.

"Charts can be rearranged on the dashboard by dragging and dropping” added Bermudez.  “And there are several additional options that can be configured.  Chart labels of up to 25 characters can be added.  The start of day can be set to any of the 24 hours. For bar charts, the average value can be shown superimposed on the graph.”

Bermudez continues, "The Analytics Dashboard can also display the highest or lowest values for a given graph.  This can be configured to show values from one to 20.  Selecting Highest and a numerical value of five on an Idle Time chart, for example, displays the five vehicles with the highest values for idle time.”

"This is important for fleet managers to know because of added fuel consumption, as well as vehicle wear,” according to Bermudez.  ”Selecting Lowest and a numerical value of ten on a Speeding chart shows the ten vehicles with the lowest incidence of speeding.”
