Automated Vehicles Location and Tracking System (AVLS)
Offering full IP connectivity, AVL Device provides real-time, two way data communication between your head office and your workforce, ensuring information is delivered when and where it is needed. AVL Device is able to leverage existing infrastructure while ensuring efficient use of bandwidth, helping to reduce operating expenditure. With AVL Device’s standard connections (USB, RJ45 Ethernet and RS232 serial), users can readily mobilize applications using off the shelf or bespoke hardware and software.
AVL Device is designed to be extremely flexible, with huge integration potential at a low risk investment. It is bearer independent and therefore future proof, supporting a wide range of networks including GPRS, GSM, 3G and TETRA. AVL Device can support dual bearers provided one is the internal GPRS bearer. The Linux-based software system can be updated at any time over the air or via the USB interface. Analogue and digital inputs enable many systems to be monitored and digital outputs permit remote control.
Interface provides the capability for vehicle diagnostics and emissions monitoring, helping fleet managers reduce fuel costs and carbon footprint. AVL Device retains all the programmable capabilities of the original AVL Device while offering increased capability. With DDIT expertise and track record in this market, we are able to offer true integration to meet your mobile data and tracking needs. We have a reputation for delivering robust, future proofed solutions, with the flexibility and breadth to ensure that your mobile requirements are met.
Using your existing IT infrastructure, our experienced team will deliver a solution that ensures that your original IT investment will be built upon and protected.
Technology Investments that are Future Proofed
AVL Device’s sophisticated communications router allows you to select which of your IT applications you would like to mobilize – at a timescale suitable for you. And in the search for lower cost communications, greater reliability and security, multi-functional AVL Device more than meets your requirements, by offering you the ability to deploy multiple applications through one communications hub.
Using historical data, senior officers can ensure ‘hot spot’ areas are monitored and officers deployed based on information gathered over a period of time.
Proof of driver behavior can be helpful in cases where officers have been accused of driving malpractice. Data retrieved from AVL Device has been successfully used in courts to prove that a driver has not acted negligently.
Asset and Resource Management
Assets have to be managed effectively in order to maximize the investment made in them. AVL Device supports engine and vehicle diagnostics for optimum fleet management, allowing preventative maintenance schemes to be put in place which lead to a significant reduction in vehicle down time and fuel costs. Furthermore, the use of over-air programming of application and firmware means that your vehicles never need to come back to the depot to be reprogrammed – freeing up space and keeping your vehicles on the road. Once an AVL Device system has been fitted, all elements of your remote workforce can be effectively managed. Information is gathered automatically and relayed back to the relevant office for analysis and recording without intervention from the driver. AVL Device is the foundation of innovative management information solutions that will grow with your organization.
AVL Device provides information that assists in:
- Assigning most appropriate resource to an incident leading to greater efficiency and reduced response times.
- Monitoring the progress of resources en-route to an incident.
- Providing proof of driver behavior.
- Ensuring optimum use of resources, preventing over deployment of vehicles and officers.
- Improving safety for officers working alone meeting health and safety requirements.
- More efficient dispatch with the advantage of reduced voice communications.
- Increased visibility of officers in the community by keeping vehicles on the road using AVL Device’s over air configuration.
- Ensuring accurate identification of vehicles and higher quality of information using AVL Device’s sophisticated functionality.
AVL Software
AVL Software location management software is an interactive tracking database and mapping system. It can be used stand-alone or integrated with enterprise systems using standard third-party interfaces. AVL Software has a built-in vehicle-status dashboard for complete real-time visual monitoring, as well as playback and search facilities.
Greater Accountability
The need for improved visibility of officers and assets is essential in planning the utilization of resources in every area of your organization, ensuring that efficiency is increased whilst reducing overall costs. AVL Device provides real-time updates, allowing organizations to provide a faster and more responsive service.
The reporting functionality AVL Software ensures your workforce has access to relevant information when and where required, so they make informed decisions based on this knowledge and deliver an improved service to the public. AVL Software provides comprehensive reports containing real and measurable information, showing where your officers have been and providing information. Such as speed, direction of travel, blue light usage and opening of gun cabinets.
