Use Cases

UPS Telematics Initiative Reduces Fuel Use

Published: June 17 2011, Automotive Fleet

UPS plans to have 32,000 vehicles in the U.S. and Canada equipped with telematics technology by year end.

When a UPS driver returns to a package center at the end of the work day, the data

(generated throughout the workday) is uploaded to a computer and then transmitted to

UPS’ data center in Alpharetta, GA. From there, the data is analyzed where information related to vehicle maintenance is fed back out to operational systems in the package centers.

The company was able to adopt a conditions-based preventative maintenance schedule by using the available data in this way. Vehicle-installed sensors provide data on components acting outside normal parameters. After delivery trucks return to package centers, if the provided data indicates vehicles have issues, UPS service technicians will then diagnose the potential problems to determine whether maintenance is necessary.

UPS began its telematics initiative in 2008. One metric from the program includes vehicle idle time by 15 minutes per driver per day (which adds up to 25 gallons of fuel per driver annually). UPS said it’s evaluating the telematics initiative for use in its UPS Freight and

European small package operation.

A Safe Investment For Rollins Orkin

Published: September 2011, Connected World Magazine

A fleet management system can do more than increase safety and efficiency; it can also help a company cut down on the insurance premiums it pays for its fleet of vehicles.

Every Tuesday at 10:30 AM, Mike Gibney of Rollins Orkin sits down with his cup of coffee, about seven team members, and a three-letter agenda, GPS. As director of claims and loss control at Rollins Orkin, Gibney spends the next 45 minutes discussing all things

GPS. “We have policies that revolve around GPS,” says Gibney. “We have rules that govern driving behavior, and it’s had a huge impact on the amount of insurance we’re having to pay out.”

And he isn’t exaggerating. Since implementing GPS into its service fleet 11 years ago,

Rollins, which owns well-known Orkin, has saved as much as $40 million per year.

“We have dramatically reduced our cost of risk,” Gibney says. “Back in 1996, 7% of revenue was going to insurance. Now, we are only spending about 2.2% on claims and insurance.”

What’re more is the company and its employees are safer. Accidents are down from about 33% of the fleet in 1996 to only 9% last year. Workers’ compensation claims have decreased from about 25% of the workforce to 11%.

How can a GPS system save the 20th largest fleet in the nation millions of dollars in insurance costs? Gibney says it’s a matter of tracking unsafe driver behaviors like speeding, seatbelt use, and after-hours usage, and then implementing and enforcing a progressive discipline plan.

Using the Geotab GO Device, the GPS tracking system uses a patented trip recording method as well as Driver ID option that monitors driving performance by individual employee, a great feature if employees have to switch vehicles.

Frito-Lay Turns Fleet Data Into Dollars

Published: July 2011, Connected World Magazine

Meet Mike O’Connell, director of fleet at Frito-Lay. When the snack giant decided to add telematics to its fleet of 17,000 delivery trucks, the business possibilities were endless.

“When we first did the pilot, it was very overwhelming because we didn’t know what we were looking for,” he says. “We had so much data, we didn’t know what to do with it.”

“I don’t need a second-by-second of everything,” he explains. “I need snapshots of data, and I need to know when things change. I also need to prioritize what is important to us.”

But when you are swimming in data how do you even know what to reach for? The answer to that question will vary by company, of course, but there are some current trends that are leading fleet managers down the road to profitability.

According to Dominique Bonte from ABI Research, the problem is many fleet management vendors never moved beyond “the dot on the map” GPS provided. “It was very much pushing technology and then once it was sold, it was up to the fleet manager to try and do something with it,” says Bonte.

But like most of today’s executives, fleet manager like O’Connell are trying to do more with less manpower, which means they certainly don’t have time to translate stacks of data reports. The key, Bonte explains, is finding a good data-processing solution that does the work for you and, more importantly, creates value out of the data that is being collected.

Focusing on the exceptions has certainly worked for Frito-Lay. Using the Geotab GO

Device, the snack provider has created data “scorecards” that are helping O’Connell identify vehicles that are not meeting idle and out-of-route mile goals, the two metrics the company is measuring to drive down fuel costs.

Vehicle Configuration

Overview

The Vehicles tab on the left side menu allows you to add/edit/view any vehicle in your database.

Adding a Vehicle

Once logged in, navigate to Vehicles on the left side menu. Select Add and then Add

Vehicle . Enter your Geotab GO Device serial number and your vehicle name to pair them together. We recommend a vehicle name such as “Make Model Year” or if you prefer, the driver’s name.

Editing a Vehicle

In most cases the pre-configured settings for new vehicle installations is well-suited.

However, in advanced usage circumstances such as custom logging behavior you will need to configure your vehicle more specifically.

From the left side menu select Vehicles , the list of vehicles in your database will be displayed. To edit a vehicle, select it from the list.

You can easily rename the vehicle to something easy to identify by changing the description field. Additionally, use the comments field to attach information specific to this vehicle such as it’s primary location, make and model, etc.

Your Geotab GO Device will attempt to automatically determine information about the vehicle it is installed in. Fields for your vehicle’s VIN, odometer, engine hours and license plate. In most cases will be automatically updated for you (except for the license plate), however you are able to make your own changes if necessary.

Driver feedback

Making it easy for your drivers to immediately improve their on-road driving behavior, the in-vehicle audible alerts notify drivers of unsafe or potentially risky driving events.

Once the driver has corrected their actions, for example by reducing their speed or fastening their seat belt, the interactive in-vehicle alert will cease to notify them.

This helps your organization develop a fleet-wide safety program that works without intervention.

Your fleet managers can review this information with real time reporting and be notified when events occur through by email and text messages. (see Reports )

Groups

To help organize your fleet, you can create groups to separate the vehicles into different areas. When you have multiple user accounts accessing MyGeotab, users can have access to all, or individual groups, this can be used for vehicle types, regions, managers or…..

Note: Groups are used to organize your vehicles, users and zones. For more information on creating new groups and managing existing ones, refer to the chapter entitled Groups in this guide.

When everything is setup properly you can change your account preferences on MyGeotab to utilize your own map server by selecting Administration from the left side menu and then select System Settings /Maps .

Searching the map

The search box makes it easy to find anything from one place. It simultaneously searches:

● Device name

● Addresses

● Zones

● Customers

● Routes

● VIN (Vehicle identification number)

The drop down arrow to the right of the search is used to browse vehicles and groups.

Selecting the vehicle will show its current position on the map. You can search for and select more than one vehicle at a time.

Tip : Select View->Views->Save this View to save specific map views to return to areas of interest quickly. In the example below Bay Area, SF is added as a custom view.

When you return to the live map, you can now select a preconfigured view from the top menu.

Displaying zones

When viewing the current location of your vehicle(s), you can optionally display informational layers on top of the map. Select View , then from the list select Show/Hide

Zones to display any custom zones you have created which are currently in view. Repeat these steps to hide zones.

Note: Zones are used to denote areas of interest such as customer areas, workplaces or people’s homes and can be used in exception reporting. Refer to the chapter entitled Zones .

Displaying exceptions

With the map displayed, a smart legend which shows color-coded exceptions to assist with identifying problems. Individual exceptions can be toggled on and off on the map by selecting the exception name from the legend. (Only exceptions in the view will appear)

Real time tracking

You can select multiple vehicles at a time and all will be displayed on the map. Geotab will automatically adjust the zoom level to include your selection in view. To find more information about the current location of a vehicle, hover over its location and an information popup will appear with the device name and trip status.

Interacting with the map

By selecting the current location of a vehicle several options are available. Select Add

Zone from the menu to quickly place a new zone at this vehicle’s location.

By selecting an area on the map that isn’t the location of a vehicle or another layer, the following options are available:

● Add Zone:

Create a zone at this location. The zone will be an editable square centered on your selection. You can then name the zone and change the size and shape.

● Nearest:

Find the nearest vehicle to your selection.

● Find address:

Displays the street address of your selection. The latitude and longitude will be used if no street address is available.

● Show street view:

Displays Google StreetView imagery for your selection.

Filter

When viewing the map or other components of your fleet you can easily choose to only view certain groups of vehicles at a time. Use the filter box located in the top left corner of the screen to select which vehicles are shown.

Note: The filter is only visible after vehicles have been added to one or more groups. Additionally, ensure that your user account has the proper permissions set by your account administrator to view the selected group using the filter.

Vehicle Trips

Overview

When vehicles are driven from place to place, MyGeotab will automatically save records of each trip made. Depending on the vehicle in which your Geotab GO Device is installed in, it will use many different factors to determine when a trip starts and ends. In most vehicles, when the ignition is turned on, your trip begins. The GO Device will record the distance traveled, time spent driving and idling and important engine diagnostic events which take place along the way. When the vehicle comes to a stop and the ignition is turned off, the trip ends and can be replayed and visualized on MyGeotab.

Note: Due to differences in vehicle manufacturers detecting the vehicle ignition may be unavailable. If this is the case, your Geotab GO Device will attempt to detect the engine running based on changes to its current location.

When a vehicle remains stationary for 200 seconds with the ignition on, MyGeotab will automatically create a trip. This allows accurate recording of deliveries made when the vehicle is left idling. Short stops lasting less than 200 seconds are not counted as stops if the ignition is not turned off.

If MyGeotab detects the engine is running, and the vehicle is not changing position then this action is defined as idling. Idling that occurs before a trip starts is included as part of the idling for the previous trip. A trip starts the first time a vehicle moves because vehicles may, at any time, be started and remain stationary for a period of time.

Historic tracking

With MyGeotab, you have access to the real time locations of your fleet and the entire history of where vehicles have been. You can use this feature to go back in time to examine what happened on a previous date. Select the Trips History button to work with historic tracking.

When using Trips History , your selected vehicles will have their trips displayed automatically. The table will show each individual trip as a single row. The first item in the row is the address or zone name of which the vehicle was stopped.

Note: Zone names will be used in place of addresses after you have created zones for customers locations, workplaces or other places of interest.

If the location is a zone then it will be underlined in the corresponding color to denote the type of the zone: See list above which shows Yellow and Blue lines for specified zones.

Mapping historic trips

The list of trips also shows when the vehicle arrived, how long it was stopped for, the trip time and trip distance. Selecting an individual trip will add the trip to the map. Select additional trips from the list to show many trips at once.

Tip: A shortcut for adding all the trips for the day is to select the date.

The numbers on the trips list correspond to the numbers on the map for that vehicle, making it easy to relate them. Use the speed graph button on the right side of the row to display the speed graph for a trip.

Each trip is shown using a different color. The colored bar to the left of the trip data indicates the color of that trip on the map. An automatic legend is shown at the bottom of the map which denotes important events along the trips.

Exceptions and the stops which occurred during the trip are shown on the map. You can filter the map icons by selecting or deselecting one of the areas from the smart legend.

The trail line of the vehicle is color-coded with the exception type which occurred. When multiple exceptions occur, the color will alternate in a banding pattern. In the case when the exception line is too short to be visible, a warning triangle is used in its place.

The direction of travel along the trip is denoted with arrows. A star with a number indicates a customer stop (a zone was created at that location) and a square with a number indicates a stop that occurred outside of a known zone.

By moving your mouse along trip, additional information about your selection is displayed including:

● Time, date and address

● Movement status

● Exceptions

When viewing trips on a map, the left hand side options will be automatically collapsed to allow for more room to view the map. To re-open the options menu, select the arrow located to the far left hand edge of the view.

Trip summary

From within the Trips History view, selecting the Summary button will show you summarized trip information throughout your fleet.

The trip summary view allows you to compare essential driving data for your entire fleet.

This report will show the vehicle which was driven the furthest at the top of the list.

The pie chart in the upper right hand side corner shows the durations stopped inside customer, office, home and non-customer zones.

Note: Hover your mouse over the pie chart to examine where the driver is spending their time.

Hover your mouse over the green distance line of each driver to see the percentage of distance compared to the longest distance traveled.

You can examine the idle time compared to the overall drive time by hovering over the clock icon.

Zones

Overview

A zone is a virtual perimeter around a real-world area of interest. You can use them to denote where places are such as your office, customers, workplaces, airports, gas stations, entire states and provinces or people’s homes. When combined with exception reporting, zones become a critical component for analyzing the behavior of your fleet.

In the picture below, a vehicle trip is shown where the driver stopped inside a zone.

When you hover your mouse over the stop, the name of the zone is displayed.

Creating a new zone

To create a zone, select the Add Zone button. You can create an unlimited number of zones and they can be created individually or by importing a list you prepared in a spreadsheet application.

To define the boundary of your new zone, first select a starting point on the map.

Continue creating the boundary by selecting points along its perimeter. A line will connect the points, showing the perimeter in the order you add them. To finish, close the zone by re-selecting the beginning point once again, then select the Save button.

Tip: While the zone is being created, the round markers on the corners of the perimeter lines can be moved. To remove a point, drag the point off the map.

Customizing a zone

After creating a zone, the following screen is shown. From here you can give the new zone a name. This name will be used in reports and on the map.

Many of the fields for the new zone will be automatically set to an initial value. However, you may want to specify your own customizations such as which group the zone should belong to. Additionally, you can provide any other details about the zone in the comments field, disable the zone from being displayed on the map and change the color used to display the zone.

Another important aspect of zones is their type. The zones which you create can belong to different classes such as Customers , Offices or Homes . By using zone types, you can create very specific reports. For example, if you create zones at customers, you can report and filter by the Customers zone type, this allows you to easily see when drivers arrived and departed from your customers.

Note: You can manage your zone types by selecting Types from the top menu.

By using zones in combination with real time location tracking, reporting becomes a powerful tool for productivity. Exceptions generated by drivers will include information about which zones they were inside (or outside) of, or even nearby to. This enables a number of possible scenarios such as:

● Have an email sent out when drivers arrive at customer location

● Sound an in-vehicle alert to a driver who has left work early

● Notify your shipping and receiving department when a truck is soon to arrive

Geotab recognizes stops made within zones, such as customer areas, and can also indicate the amount of time spent at these locations.

Modifying an existing zone

To change the shape of a zone, find the zone on the map or search for it in the zones list. Selecting a zone on the map and the menu below will be shown. Select Change zone shape to modify the boundary by moving or removing individual points. To add a new point to the boundary, select along the zone boundary. Remove an existing point by dragging it off the map. When finished, select Save changes, or Cancel return to the previous screen.

Note: Changing zone properties will affect future data. You can reprocess data to affect data from the past.

Removing zones

Zones can be removed from the database by selecting a zone and then selecting

Remove . Once the zone is removed, your reports which previously displayed the zone name will instead show the address if available and you will no longer be able to see the zone on the map.

Making changes to or removing multiple zones at a time is made easy by using the checkbox at the top right hand corner to select multiple zones.

Once your zones are selected, select Remove or Edit Zones from the top menu to affect all the selected zones.

Note: The zone list displays 500 zones at a time, use Select Visible to select the entire page at once.

Importing zones

You can use a spreadsheet application to prepare a list of zones which can be imported to your account. This saves time when you have a large number of zones to be created.

When addresses for your zones are available use the following format to create a spreadsheet in Excel:

If you are creating zones in a remote area where street addresses are unavailable, you can use the following format which utilizes geographical coordinates instead:

Note: In both examples, the reference column is an incremental number starting from 1 and is used to verify all zones have been successfully created.

Routing

Overview

Effectively dispatching your drivers is easy when you use Geotab to do your route optimization. You can reduce fuel consumption, mileage, CO2 emissions and increase your organization’s operational efficiency. As a fleet manager, you know how important it is to make accurate and fast deliveries while maintaining high customer satisfaction levels.

Creating a route

Routes created by connecting a sequence of zones together to create a path. The route can optionally start and end at the same location and can be defined in any order you wish. You can optionally allow Geotab to optimize the order in which a driver should visit each zone so that fuel consumption is kept to a minimum.

Navigate to Zones & Messages from the left hand side options menu. Select Routes from the sub-menu, your existing routes will be displayed.

Select Add Route from the top menu to create a new route.

Assign a departure point for the route by selecting a zone on the map. Continue to select additional zones which the driver must visit along their route. After all zones have been added, select Save route from the top menu.

Note: The order in which zones are added to the route is not important as the route can be optimized after all zones are added to ensure that the least distance is traveled.

Take a moment to customize your route by adding a description and optional comment.

For example, describe the customer’s which will be visited or the main roads that should be driven.

Select the Optimize button to ensure that the shortest route will be chosen. This will greatly help you save time and fuel for long routes.

When finished, select Save from the top menu.

Route plans

When you have a route created, a route plan can then be created allowing you to examine how a driven route compares defined route. The route plan consists of your route, timeframe for completion and a specific driver. When used in combination with one another, the route plan comparison is a powerful way to highlight where and when a driver unexpectedly spent time or has made unplanned stops.

Navigate to an existing route that has been created or follow the previous steps to create a new route. Select Create plan from the top menu to create a route plan.

Assign a specific vehicle to the route plan by selecting one from the drop down list.

The Zones organizer lists each zones part of the zone plan. Estimated times based on the distance between each zone will be given. Based your business requirement, you can adjust the times between each zone to account for deliveries, customer visits or other actions the driver will perform. When finished, select Save from the top menu.

Comparing actual trips with planned routes

This process requires the use of the Software Development Kit (SDK) to import the routes in to your account. The routes must be formatted as a CSV file with the details of the route name, stop locations, the estimated time to drive to each location and the estimated time to be spent at each stop.

Note: Geotab offers SDK samples to assist you with this process.

Your stop locations must be entered as unique zones in your Geotab account. After the route has been completed, a report can be generated using the Planned vs. Actual Route

Report to highlight stops made out of order, missed stops, travel time and extra time spent in zones along the route.

Plan vs. actual route report

In addition to the visual, map-based report, you can run a text based report of your route plans which can be downloaded to your computer.

OpenStreetmaps by default, additional choices include Google Maps and Bing Maps. In some areas one map provider’s imagery may be more recent than another. For that reason, you can change your default view using the options below. Refer to the previous section on Views to learn about creating default map views to automatically center on an area when you open the live map.

Tip: You can drag and drop the views (blue) to order them as you want. The view at the top will be used as the initial view.

User interface

You can change which screen is initially shown when you sign in to Geotab by selecting from the default page at start-up list below. Newly created users will be shown the

Getting Started page, and after becoming accustomed to using Geotab, selecting a different page may be more beneficial to more advanced users.

Hours of service rule set

Geotab supports all the current hours of service regulations. Depending on where your business operates, select the rule set which applies to your drivers below.

Managing users

So far, all the options explained have been applied to the currently signed in user profile.

As an administrator of an account, you have the ability to manage other user profiles by making changes on their behalf. Navigate to Administration from the left hand side menu then select Users from the sub-menu.

Select a user from the list to manage, the user preferences will be shown allowing you to make changes.

This screen is composed of three tabs:

● User (User/Employee settings and assigned groups)

● Driver (Driver ID settings)

● Options (User preferences)

Modifying multiple users

If you want to make the same changes to a number of user accounts, rather than performing them all individually you can use the drop down list in the top right to select multiple users at a time to make account wide changes.

Security clearances

You can configure user-level security which ensures certain users have access to limited groups or only specific Geotab features. This process can help to simplify the workflow for a new user by hiding unused advanced features.

To add or change security clearances select Administration from the left hand side menu, then select Users from the sub-menu. From the top menu, select Clearances .

Users can be grouped into different access levels that you define and individual permissions can be applied to groups of users.

Geotab defines the following access levels and in most cases provides a suitable set of access levels:

● Administrator (Full access)

● Supervisor (Removes ability to change users, databases, engine data, server status and global system options)

● Default User (Allows creating zones and groups and is able to view data for drivers and vehicles which belong to their own group)

● View Only (Allows viewing all data within their group but cannot make changes)

● Nothing (Allows access to help and should be reserved for training purposes)

Groups

Overview

You can organize your vehicles, exceptions, zones and users into groups to match the layout of your own organization. For instance, if your organization has East and West divisions, then you can easily separate your account in this way. This allows important information for each division to be presented only to those responsible for managing them.

Managing groups

Navigate to Rules & Groups from the left hand side options then select Groups from the sub-menu. Groups are managed using a graphical interface which shows the hierarchical organization of your organization including the base set of groups provided by Geotab.

● Locations (Used to separate assets into the areas they service. For example, East and

West)

● Reports (Used to denote which users receive the available emailed reports)

● Vocation (Used to organize assets for reporting sales, service, delivery, etc)

Groups can be placed inside other groups. This allows your Geotab account to be set up to match your organization’s hierarchy.

Messaging

Overview

Geotab works with Garmin in-vehicle navigation devices to allow seamless two-way text message communication from the web with the driver. Messages sent to drivers appear as alerts and can be answered using unobtrusive, single tap responses for acceptance and acknowledgement of new jobs and tasks.

Note: A Garmin device can be added to a Geotab GO6 or Geotab GO4v3 Device. Not every Garmin model works with of all the features Geotab offers. Contact your authorized reseller to purchase the necessary hardware.

Message .

Detailed information about sent messages including the date and time of delivery and the driver’s response if one has been received is available from the messaging hub.

Status groups

Drivers with Garmin equipped vehicles can notify their team of changes to their working status using common statuses. For example, when a has completed a task and requires new work, they can set their status to available. This status update can then be used by dispatch to select the most relevant driver for a task based on not only location but availability.

Other common statuses are:

● Available, Busy, Do not disturb

● Assistance Needed

● Emergency

● On-call

To create the set of statuses available to a driver through their Garmin, navigate to the vehicle properties then select the Group tab.

Each vehicle can have up to four available statuses for the driver to select from.

Once you the statuses are saved, the driver’s in-vehicle Garmin will be updated. They can set their current status by selecting Geotab and then Quick Message . When viewing the map, driver status will be displayed in the information popup when hovering over their current location.

Dispatch

Overview

Geotab offers an intuitive way to dispatch members of your mobile team to and from job sites in real time. You can easily dispatch new jobs, pickups and drop off locations, zones or entire routes to your Garmin equipped vehicles.

Dispatching vehicles to zones

To send a zone you’ve created to a vehicle, find that zone either by using the map or by searching for it. Once the zone is displayed, simply select it. The zone options menu is now displayed, select Dispatch vehicle here.

When creating a dispatch request, you can select one or more vehicles to receive the request. Those drivers can optionally receive text messages you specify which include additional instructions about the job.

Dispatching routes to vehicles

You can send entire routes to vehicles to dispatch a sequence destinations the driver should reach. To send a route to a vehicle, select Zones & Messages from the left hand side menu. Select Routes from the sub-menu, and then select the Routes button. Find the desired route by searching those available and select it to continue.

Send the route to the vehicle by selecting Send To Vehicle from the top menu.

Exceptions

Overview

Understanding where and when issues arise with fleet is made simple by establishing exception rules. When a vehicle event occurs which breaks a rule, an exception is recorded which can then optionally notify one or more people, alert the responsible driver in their vehicle, or simply log the event in your account. Fleet managers can at any time run reports and review the history of exceptions to understand the trending behaviors of their fleet.

Geotab offers a robust suite of built in exceptions separated into easy to understand categories. In addition to these, you can create an unlimited number of custom rules which combine different various conditions to suit your needs.

The types of built in exceptions available are available in three categories:

1. Safety:

Changes to driver behavior which increases accident risk such as harsh braking, seat belt use, speed violations, accident detection and more.

2. Productivity:

Driver measurements related to time spent performing specific actions such as excessive idling, late arrivals, early departures and more.

3. Fleet:

Responsive vehicle monitoring Engine issues, battery drain, tracking device tamper detection and more.

Managing exceptions

Exception rules are managed by selecting Rules & Groups from the left hand side menu, then by selecting Rules . Use the buttons shown below to open detailed explanations of each exceptions and select the pen button to begin making changes.

You can manage who is notified when exceptions occur by selecting the envelope button from the top menu.

Safety exceptions

Geotab enables fleet wide safety and driver improvement through instant notifications of in-vehicle behaviors. All exceptions can be configured to interactively alert the responsible driver at the time of exception by using an audible alarm built in to your

Geotab GO Device. This feedback allows early detection and response to driver activity which greatly increases the road safety of your drivers and others on the road with them.

Listed below are all the built in safety related exceptions which Geotab offers.

Productivity exceptions

Geotab is consistently raising the bar when it comes to driver productivity tracking.

You can be notifications of exceptions such as late arrival, early departure, idling, unauthorized home or customer stops, excessive office time, long lunch and even long stops during work hours.

Listed below are all the built in productivity related exceptions which Geotab offers.

Fleet exceptions

Thousands of vehicles equipped with Geotab technology have realized significant cost savings benefits. Geotab offers the most extensive metrics available to help you reduce fuel consumption. We help you be proactive in keeping your fuel costs down by managing driver behaviors such as excessive speeding, idling and detecting engine issues as before they become costly problems.

Listed below are all the built in fleet related exceptions which Geotab offers.

Auxiliary Rules

Overview

Auxiliary rules allow you to manage connected external input devices and sensors to the Geotab GO Device through a familiar rule based approach. These rules integrate seamlessly with the live map and are displayed in real time.

Note: Auxiliary Rules were formerly known as Auxiliary Groups.

As an example, assume your Geotab GO Device has auxiliary 1 connected to your driver side door and is activated whenever it is opened. In MyGeotab, you would now configure an auxiliary rule named “Door Open” in the place of “Aux1” for the corresponding vehicle.

What’s changed from 5.6?

In MyGeotab 5.7, Auxiliary Groups have been removed in favour of using Auxiliary Rules.

Rules are a much more flexible way to represent an “auxiliary group” for usability and reporting processes. It is possible to view broken auxiliary rules from the map, trips history and exceptions report. This change will not affect any device settings or rules that utilize auxiliaries, these will continue to function as they have.

During the upgrade process from 5.6 to 5.7 any auxiliary groups that were assigned to one or more devices will be automatically converted to auxiliary rules.

Creating an auxiliary rule

Grouping Auxiliaries

Generally we want to keep Auxiliary Groups in a separate Group tree from that of location, vehicle category, etc. For this reason we will group all auxiliaries in their own branch under Entire Organization.

1. If you already have a parent group for Auxiliaries skip to step 4

2. Navigate to Rules & Groups from the left hand side menu, then select Groups from the sub-menu

3. Click the “+” button connected to the Entire Organization group

4. Name the group “Auxiliaries” and click save

5. Next we will create our auxiliary group, click the Auxiliary branch

6. Click the “+” button under Auxiliaries group

7. Name the group as required, for this example we will use “Salt Truck”, click save

Auxiliary Rules

Navigate to Rules & Groups from the left hand side menu, then select Rules from the sub-menu.

1. Select Add from the top menu to begin creating a new auxiliary rule

2. Give your auxiliary rule a meaningful name and description such as “Salter”

3. Select the Groups “Salt Truck” group

4. Click the Conditions tab to specify how the rule will behave

5. Select the connected auxiliary port from the More menu

6. Select True for the value from the opened Condition Value Selection then click Add to associate the new rule with this auxiliary input

7. Add any additional conditions you would require such as the ignition being on, minimum duration or vehicle speed

8. Create the new rule by selecting Save

Note: Your new rule applies to future data. If you would like to apply the auxiliary rule to historic information, you must first reprocess your historical data.

Apply Auxiliary Rule to Vehicles

Navigate to Vehicles from the left hand side menu.

1. Select one or more vehicles from the list to add the aux rule to

2. Select the “Groups” tab

3. Select the “Salt Truck” group from the “Groups” control

4. Save the vehicle(s)

User Access

Because Aux Rules are grouped, you may need to give users access to report on Aux rules. Note that given a user access to an Aux group in their “Data Scope” may result in them getting access to vehicles you do not want them to see. For this reason you can give a user access to the aux group in their reporting scope. This will give them access to see the exception on the map and report on these exceptions.

If the users in question have Entire Organization data scope, skip this step.

1. Navigate to Users from the left hand side menu

2. Select the user(s) you want to see aux rule exceptions

3. Under “Additionally allow reporting by these groups:” select the aux group you would like the user to report against. For example the “Salt Truck” group we set up in the above steps

4. Save the user(s)

Auxiliary rule reports

After an auxiliary rule has been broken by a vehicle or driver, it will be available in your exception reports.

1. Select Rules & Groups from the left hand side menu, then select Exceptions from the sub-menu.

2. Select which Device , Driver or Group to report on and select the appropriate time and date range from the Filter .

3. Select the Options button, the Select Exception Rules window is now displayed.

4. From the Select All Rules drop down menu, select Select Particular Rules .

5. Select the auxiliary rules to report on and close the Select Exception Rules window.

6. Select Apply to run your report using the filter you created

Note: To view a summarized version which includes duration totals and the total number of incidents select the Summarized button from the top menu.

Auxiliary rule notifications

When auxiliary rules are broken you can have automatic notifications sent out to inform fleet managers. A notification can be displayed in the following ways:

● Email to one or more people

● An alert displayed on Geotab

● The driver can be alerted by an audible in vehicle alarm

● Third-party systems can use additional means such as SMS

Email templates

The information included in the email notifications is fully customizable using simple to use templates.

Examples of customizing the notifications sent out are:

● Compact version for mobile devices to conserve data usage on mobile data plans

● Include a contact phone number for emergency situations

● Offer a web link to a map containing directions to a service station when engine failure is detected

Note: there may be a minor delay between when data is sent from the vehicle to when the server sends a notification depending on the type of notification and exception being handled.

Advanced notifications

You can further customize the conditions which need to be met to send a notification by using the advanced editor. You can combine multiple conditions together to specify exact business cases such as:

● Dangerous driving detected from engine measurements

● Seat belt use when in motion

● Arrival and departure of zones outside normal working hours

Drivers

Overview

Geotab is designed with next-generation safety technology allowing you to gain incredible insight into your driver’s on-road behavior using informative management reports.

Risk and safety scores are assigned to individual drivers and are based on various key indicators such as speeding, seat belt usage, harsh braking, sharp corner turns, over acceleration and after-hours vehicle use. You will easily enhance your fleet’s safety with real time risk and safety reporting.

Detecting speeding

Compare your driver’s speed with the posted road speed for local city driving, or within specific zones such as schools or other low speed residential areas. Easily watch changes in style depending on the environmental conditions.

Navigate to the real time sped graph by selecting Drivers from the left hand side options menu. Then, select Speed Profile to display the real time graph.

Customers who use the hosted version of Geotab have access to real world posted road speeds. This allows street level accurate notifications to be sent when driver’s exceed local speed limits. Posted speed limit data comes from two sources:

● NAVTEQ Maps

● Open Street Maps (OSM)

Note: Posted road speed is only available to customers who use the hosted version of Geotab and is supported in the U.S. and Canada.

Posted road speeds can change frequently and may contain inaccuracies. You can update the posted road speed of any road by clicking on a road from the live map. A menu will appear, select Update posted road speed to change the value.

Geotab shares the changes you make to posted road speeds with all customers. That way, everyone benefits from each others changes. On a monthly basis, Geotab will send the latest posted road speeds to OpenStreetMaps, where they will make them available to everyone else on the Internet.

Note: Due to the possible inaccuracies caused by road construction or other hazards. We recommend that posted speed limits be used as part of a larger safety strategy.

For the latest coverage maps from the above data sources see http://goo.gl/W0xxj7 .

Vehicle acceleration

Geotab offers the ability to set exception rules for excessive driving behaviors such as harsh acceleration, harsh braking and harsh cornering. Depending on the type of vehicle the rule is applied to, use the table below as a guideline for the average g-force exertions typical to that vehicle. In most cases, the default values found in Geotab are suitable, but are highly customizable.

NFC Driver ID

Overview

Geotab has incorporated the latest in RFID technologies - Near Field Communications

(NFC) - to deliver driver identification for personnel that switch between vehicles. Driver

ID allows fleet managers to have a full view into their driver activities regardless of the vehicle they are currently driving. This allows running reports, rules and exceptions by driver or vehicle. Driver ID can be combined vehicle immobilization wherein a valid Driver

ID keyfob must be touched to the reader before the vehicle will start.

Understanding drivers

When using Geotab, a Driver is special type of user account that is configured by your administrator. A driver can be issued a physical driver key (NFC or GO key) which is then used to identify that specific driver when in a vehicle.

Driver keys

When a driver enters a vehicle, they use their Driver ID keyfob to associate their user account with that vehicle. When using NFC, this process is performed by tapping the

Driver ID keyfob on your equipped vehicle’s driver identification reader.

● NFC:

Driver identification is done by tapping their key (or tag) to the Geotab NFC IOX reader. Each key has a visible unique serial number which is associated with a user account.

● GO key:

Legacy driver identification which is inserted to the reader. GO keys are designed for

Geotab GO2 and GO4 devices and do not have a visible serial number.

Using driver identification

When a driver enters a vehicle equipped with a driver identification system they should first use their driver key to identify themselves before starting the engine. If they do not first identify themselves, an audible sound will remind them that identification is required.

The identified driver will then be associated with that vehicle for the duration of a single trip, or until another driver identifies themselves.

If a driver attempts to use their driver key before it is assigned to their user account an exception will be generated letting you know that an unassigned key has been used to identify a driver in a vehicle.

Note: Your account must first have the driver identification feature enabled.

Configuring drivers

To create a new driver navigate to Administration from the left hand side menu, then select Users from the sub-menu. Select a user from the list which you would like to denote as a driver, then select the Driver tab.

Use the On/Off switch to make this user a driver.

From the options shown, select the type of driver keys you are using, either NFC or GO key (USB). Enter the serial number in the field given, or if using GO keys you may use the assign key utility.

GO key assignment

The Assign Key wizard can be used with the GO key reader to prepare a GO key and automatically assign its serial number to a driver’s user account.

Manually assigning drivers to vehicles

Performing the assignment yourself of drivers to vehicles is useful when you are not using vehicles equipped with driver identification systems. Additionally, if there is a conflict between driver keys and vehicles you can easily make the manual correction.

Follow these steps assign your drivers to vehicles.

Navigate to the Map from the left hand side menu.

Select a vehicle, then from the options that are displayed select Assign driver .

A small window is displayed, select the driver by name from the drop down list.

If this driver will be the default driver, use the Yes/No switch to automatically associate them with this vehicle in the future. When finished, select Apply changes .

Engine Data

Overview

Your Geotab GO Device is designed to collect and respond to status information in your vehicle. The port which it is installed in is traditionally used for on-board diagnostics from the vehicle’s manufacturer.

Your Geotab GO Device responds to changes in your vehicle to the following areas:

● Engine RPM

● Battery voltage

● Engine warning light on (MIL)

● Seatbelt usage

● Odometer

● Engine hours (PTO)

● Emission faults

● Vehicle identification number (VIN)

Please be aware that due to differences in vehicle manufacturers, the actual engine information available in your vehicles may vary. Geotab is consistently expanding the number of supported vehicles and features and regularly distributes firmware updates as necessary.

Note: If when installing your Geotab GO Device you experience issues such as power loss, the vehicle stalls or engine lights are displayed you may have an incompatible vehicle. Please remove the Geotab GO Device and contact your authorized Geotab reseller.

Understanding your vehicle

Authorized Geotab resellers have access to a proprietary tool which is used to automatically discover the available engine information for your vehicle. This is done by providing Geotab your vehicle identification number which is usually located on your dashboard.

In order to determine whether a vehicle is driving, stationary or turned off, the system uses patented technology to examine vehicle battery voltage, movement by use of accelerometer, GPS location and available engine status information. This allows the system to be used in vehicles that do not include an engine bus, in new electric or hybrid vehicles, commercial vans and large trucks.

Current vehicle support

Use the following charts as a guide as the compatibility of your vehicles with certain features. For the most up to date information please contact your authorized Geotab reseller.

Vehicle odometer

In most cases, your Geotab GO Device automatically records your odometer value.

The IFTA report relies on the odometer history.

For some vehicles, automatic recording of odometer reading may not be available because the manufacturer does not provide it, or its not yet supported. If not, you can update the odometer in your Geotab account by manually entering your vehicle’s current odometer reading.

Geotab retroactively corrects historical odometer readings based on the most recently entered value (whether manually entered, or automatically recorded). This most recent value is always assumed to be correct and overrides all previous entries or corrections.

Incorrectly entered information can result in inaccurate reports:

● Incorrectly copying or entering an odometer value might produce negative historical trip values

● When a GO Device firmware update introduces automated odometer tracking for a vehicle whose odometer values were previously manually entered, but incorrect, it could produce a “jump” in the value

● If a GO Device is moved from one vehicle to another, but the old vehicle was not marked as “historic”, then odometer readings for multiple vehicles are combined. This could result in sudden “jumps” or past negative trips.

● Recommendations:

● Double check your manual odometer readings and entry

● When permanently transferring your Geotab Go Device to a new vehicle, set the previous vehicle to “historic”, to preserve your location data and create a new vehicle.

Firmware release notes for GO Devices

Device Release Notes for Q3 2012 ( http://goo.gl/xN4GQ )

RF (passive) devices

Even though it is much more useful to have tracking done live, the GO4v3 product line supports downloading data without the use of a cellular or paid for link. The data is buffered and stored in the vehicle for the entire day's journey for a vehicle and then downloaded through a downloader located at the customer's offices. The range of this downloading varies but is typically 1000 ft. The downloaders are connected to an

Ethernet network and configured using Geotab.

Mobile support

Geotab supports most modern smartphones such as iOS, Andrioid and BlackBerry. Our maps have been optimized for touch interaction and support panning, zooming and taps.

Upgrading from previous versions

Upgrading from a previous version of Geotab to 5.6 is mostly an automatic process.

There are some major improvements to some features in version 5.6 which add manual steps that you may need to perform if you have some more advanced configurations.

Please read the next few sub-sections carefully to check whether you will need to perform additional configuration after upgrading.

Generic engine rules

As of the July 2012 firmware update for Geotab GO Devices, the vehicle will now use a generic engine ruleset for engine diagnostics. Previously, diagnostics were specific to every type of engine source, for example, fuel level for both J1708 and J1939. Now, there are generic and aggregated diagnostics which makes creating rules and generating reports for a fleet with multiple engine types much easier.

Exception rules created with specific engine types will no longer create exceptions after the firmware has been upgraded. Follow these steps to re-enable exception reporting.

1. Check whether any rules on our account utilize an engine type (if they have a name with an engine source type in parentheses as shown below)

2. Add a generic diagnostic by using the Add Engine button then add it to the conditions.

3. Open the advanced rule conditions by selecting the script icon.

4. Remove everything except the content of the second term. As an example, you would keep the following: IsValueLessThan[value=50%](

FilterStatusDataByDiagnostic[diagnostic=DiagnosticFuelLevelId] ):

When finished, you should have a rule which looks similar to the following:

Software Features

Overview

Learn how businesses use Geotab to control costs through saving time and costs of operating their fleets. Here are a few recent examples of our customers who take full advantage of what we offer.

Safety

● Setup exceptions for dangerous driving

○ speeding against posted speed limits

○ harsh brake

○ dangerous lane changes/ aggressive driving

○ after hours use

○ driving with no seatbelt

● Limiting backing up (and ensuring backing first)

● Seatbelts are used much less than expected by monitoring compliance can go from

80% to 99.8% (large fleet case study)

● Notify the driver by buzzing in the vehicle

● Driver safety scorecard

● Who to email / alert in case of accident -setup a procedure when accident happens.

○ Auto retrieve

○ Reconstruction from data

● Detect distracted driving – big issue

Productivity

● Import customers using the built in wizard or use the SDK to sync customers in

Checkmate from another system automatically.

● Use groups for different customer types. That way reports will group and categorize automatically.

● Get minutes per customer visit or minutes spent visiting by category.

● In an actual case study, a large company using Geotab saves 3% on labour by monitoring how much time was done doing their customers’ deliveries.

● Report the number of customer visited by driver per day

● Manage the time employees are at the office. Paid time vs. personal time (lunch and break abuse)

● Look at the total time each day employees spend driving slowly or idling (ie caught in traffic)

● Graphically monitor days trips with exceptions. In an actual case study, a large company using Geotab saved more than 2% of their mileage by avoiding bad driver decisions like bad routing or unnecessary stops

● In an actual case study, a large company using Geotab reduced the supervisor headcount from 30:1 to 50:1 by using Checkmate as a tool to manage driver activity

● Setup allowed time at stops and through routing get planned routes vs. actual activity

● Setup allowed travel times and compare planned vs. actual

● Dispatch Overlap

● Excess Miles – Best route taken? Off Area Mileage?

● Segmented Analysis of Work Day

Fleet

● A fuel saving calculator spreadsheet is available to show the fuel saving by managing using Geotab

● High CO ratio detected by engine computer indicates vehicles wasting fuel and needing a service

● Fuel is saved by limiting idling – buzz in cab and exception rule. Accurate fuel and

CO2 measurement during idle time

● Enhanced idle time measurement

○ Begin of Trip Idle Time (actionable)

○ End of Trip Idle Time (actionable)

○ Expected/Planned Idle Time per Route (Traffic Delays) (not really actionable but knowing this will tell you the best that can be obtained)

● Miles per gallon and mpg compared against peers

● Mileage Reduction

● Email can be sent when the vehicle engine warning light is on - vehicle needs maintenance

● Email can be sent when employee leaves their car lights on or the battery is going to fail

● Email can be sent when the alternator fails

● Use Checkmate to setup service intervals, tire rotation and even lease expiring.

● Service intervals are based off odo readings taken automatically from vehicle or by total engine hours (better metric for maintenance)

● Checkmate automatically makes available accurate odo and vin for every vehicle in

Checkmate

● The watchdog report is used to identify failed or tampered units

● An advanced user can use the vehicle engine codes to identify exactly what is wrong with a vehicle without even needing a diagnostic scan tool.

● For asset utilization, Checkmate can tell what percentage of vehicles are not being driven over time and by region. In an actual case study, a large company using

Geotab reduced their unutilized assets to 4% from a the industry standard of 10% or more.

● Prioritized engine fault codes

○ Ability to filter out noise or un-actionable events

○ Optional integration with Asset Management System to open work orders

● Fault code knowledgebase

○ Optional integration with Asset Management System to provide repair data

● Best repair practices

○ Data provides repair information

○ Reduced unneeded parts expense

● Condition exceptions and threshold alerts based on like vehicles (peers)

● Scheduled component (brakes, starter, filters, alternator, etc.) maintenance based on:

○ Ignition Cycles

○ Hours

○ Miles

● Grade Component (brakes, starter, filters, lubrication, etc.) wear based on driving

Habits (jack rabbit starts, harsh braking, etc. cause accelerated wear)

● Measurement of repair effectiveness. Was condition fixed the first time? Has a direct correlation to breakdowns.

● Breakdown analysis. Breakdowns vs. vehicle data. Could breakdown have been prevented?

● Provide mechanic with vehicle location. Reduces vehicle obtain time.

Dispatch

● Find address or customer by customer name

● Find vehicles closest to the address or customer

● Click to send message to Garmin GPS in the vehicle to dispatch to that location and navigate the driver there

● Routes can be set up and driver dispatched to a route with automatic navigation to all destinations

● Statuses can be used by the driver in the Garmin to alert dispatcher as to availability

● Many reports to look at time spent driving, stopped etc.
