5 4 OpenEye Solution Modules The OpenEye solution contains the following modules for its basic version: 1. Vehicle Tracking / Tracing Module This module allows users to track, trace and monitor their vehicles real-time. This module includes three different views; a map view, tabular view and events view. Map View - Since maps are considered to be the core of any tracking system, our System provides the user with very powerful tools that enable him/her to interact with the map. While using the system the user might realize that the map allocates most of the space in the screen, through this map user can: Use the base map as a background to display the area you want to track its vehicles. Determine the vehicles exact location. Add any other layer and use it in the map display. Show the status of specific vehicle when user hover the mouse over the vehicle. Tabular view: If user is looking for detailed information about the vehicles location, status, their current speed, acceleration amount then the tabular view is all what he needs to look at, this part is located in the top of the map view, it contains a list of all the vehicles that are currently working on the field with their corresponding status. Openware Information System Consulting Company Page 5

6 The following information can be made available form the tabular view Field Name Field Description Vehicle Vehicle Name or Number Status Vehicle Status it can be : Moving Parking Not Available Idle Speed Status It represents the speed status according to the speed limit of the street a vehicle is moving on. it can be : Above Normal Normal Below Normal Not Moving Speed Street Region Governorate Latest Update Driver Name Group GeoFencing Violation Acceleration Idling Time Excessive Idling Number of Satellite Acceleration Status Displays the speed amount a vehicle is currently moving with. The name or number of the street a vehicle is currently moving on. The name of the area a vehicle is currently moving on. The name of the governorate a vehicle is currently moving on. Last time system has received a signal from the unit. Name of the person driving the vehicle. Name of the group this vehicle is part of. Shows whether the vehicle is crossing its allowed boundary or no. Values can be : Yes No Acceleration amount, this number is positive (+ve) when the vehicle is moving in excessive idling and it s negative (-ve) when the vehicle is doing a harsh braking. Time passed and the vehicle is still idle and didn t get fixed. This field determine if the idle time exceeds 1 minutes and it can be: Yes No Number of satellite covering the region where a vehicle is moving on. Status of the Acceleration driver is generating while changing his speed, it can be : Excessive Acceleration Normal Harsh Braking Driver RFID The Identification number of the person driving the vehicle. Ignition Ignition status whether it s on or off : On Off Panic If the panic button if pressed or released it can be : Yes Openware Information System Consulting Company Page 6

7 No NA Seat Belt If the Seat belt is fasten or no, it can be : Fastened Unfastened NA Light If the lights are turned On or Off, it can be : Yes No NA Doors If the doors are open or closed, it can be : Open Closed In Vehicle Unit The Identification number of the GPS unit installed inside the vehicle. ID Satellite Lock Lost If the signal is being able to reach the satellite and complete the transmit ion process, it can be : Yes No Events View: The events view provides information about violations, panic or any other events. Each violation will be considered as an event, this system has 13 predefined types of events that will be described briefly in this section. Field Name Vehicle Events Description Vehicle Name or Number Actual Driver not defined Door open while moving Excessive acceleration Excessive idling Geo-Fencing violation Harsh Braking Openware Information System Consulting Company Page 7

8 High Temperature Out of working hours Panic RFID not assigned Raised Time Duration Satellite lock lost Speed above normal Speed below normal Time this event has been raised or started How long an event has lasted 2. History Replay Module The History Replay module is used to trace Route and provide a Replay of the movement of the vehicles over a selected duration; Replay will be time-accelerated, and lines will be drawn to trace the path against recorded data.if Driver was defined, it will be possible to see who drove the vehicle. User can Replay the vehicles speed, acceleration as well. 3. Reporting Module The purpose of the Reporting Module is to generate rich reports about the monitored vehicles; those reports are resulted from analyzing the actual vehicle data to provide the decision takers with analyzed information about the performance, usage and utilization of the vehicles and drivers. The available reports are classified into 2 different categories: Openware Information System Consulting Company Page 8

9 Operational Reports: This category of reports shows the data that has been entered to the AVLS system, the target of this category is to help the end user and the system administrator to get the detailed data of the entities entered to the system (e.g. Vehicles, Drivers,..etc). Analytical Reports: This category of reports shows analyzed information about the live data received from the tracked vehicles, those reports helps the decision makers and fleet managers in taking the right decisions according to the analyzed information about the usage, violations, performance, and utilization of the vehicles and drivers. The following diagram illustrates the structure of the reporting module Reports Operational Analytical Groups Vehicles Drivers Events Utilization Trips Vehicles All Utilization Vehicle Configuration Speeding Trips Summary Acceleration Idling Panic Openware Information System Consulting Company Page 9

10 4. GeoReports Georeport is considered to be a graphic description of the events. By generating this reports user will be able to allocate all the updating events that happened by specified time and also it provides a complete visualization of what was going on the roads that will help in incident analysis. Following diagram shows the results of the generated georeport. The georeports are divided into two views; event view and map view. 5 OpenEye Optional Solution Modules The OpenEye solution is a fully customizable solution that can be tailored to the users requirement and business needs.
