According to the World Health Organization, 1.25 million people die each year due to road traffic deaths, which comes out to about 3561 people a day. Road traffic deaths have been consistently making it to the top 10 causes of death globally.

In an industry where fleet management involves having a lot of drivers, it would be great to reduce these numbers while keeping your employees safer on the road. One way you could achieve this is by using GPS tracking along with analytical data applications. The more you know about your drivers as well as what they are doing, the more you can make smart decisions about what needs to be done to work more efficiently and safely.

How GPS can keep your business operations safer:

Mapon has developed a new report which displays historical data about all vehicles of the fleet that were in a specific location and during a specific period of time. The territory and time period can be easily customized so this report can be used for various fleet data analysis.

The solution was initially developed for Riga City Municipal Police and has many applications. The police needed a quick and easy solution that would allow them to find out whether their vehicles had done patrolling in specific areas.

Another problem was the processing of citizen complaints about police vehicles in specific locations and time without having information about police vehicle license plate.

Requirements for these problems lead to a new report in Mapon system which can be used to track down all vehicles that have been within a specific region in a specific time interval. The usage is as simple as drawing a region on a map, selecting a date/time range and reviewing which vehicles have visited this region during the specified time period.

We have big news for you! Mapon has updated its switch solution to help you manage your fleet even better. The update is designed to fit the needs of special vehicle and equipment usage management.

The update includes features which allow you to see switch usage more easily on the map either in real time or in historical data when reviewing your routes. It allows you to check the exact location and time when specific switches were turned on and off. Some of the most used examples include following the activity of:

• Siren lights – reviewing the routes driven with siren on
• Door opening – locations where the doors were opened
• Lifting the load compartment – checking where the driver has poured out the load
• Lowering of road cleaning shovels – reviewing routes which were actually cleaned
• …and many other mechanical activities.
