Practically Applying Telematics Technology

摘要

Most equipment owners are aware by now that many of their machines have a factory-installed telematics system, which collects all manner of data from sensors placed throughout the machine and wirelessly transmits these facts-along with satellite-based location information-to the machine manufacturer's telematics website. There, owners can view the data, run reports that detail their machines' whereabouts, operating status, and health, plus set up "fences" that limit a machine's operation to specific times and geographical areas.
