Many organizations have mobile staff
that performs the business functions away from the office. And these
services are sales, maintenance, delivery scenarios etc. These
workers operate vehicles and are responsible for the expensive
equipment and products and tracking these assets to make sure that
they are being used correctly is not an easy task and to continuously
monitor it next to impossible.
The fleet
management software helps in tracking. Some fleet management
solutions use GIS which is a costly affair. Then the GPS (global
positioning software) came into picture. Then GPS has its own
disadvantages. The GPS Equipment was specific to one particular
vendor's software and it cannot be re-used. Due to the above
mentioned costs and complexity, new approaches gaining popularity are
the ones such as outsourcing of the fleet management software using
software as a service (SaaS).
Fleet and asset tracking solutions add value to the organization
by reducing fuel charges, maintenance cost, discouraging misuse and
optimizing field operations. Various API's (Application Programming
Interface) are used for integrating maps and locations into fleet
tracking applications. The primary API used is Ajax/JavaScript APIs.
It is used for web browser development. Advantages of these APIs
include working directly in a user’s browser without specialized
plug-ins beyond the ubiquitous JavaScript. Many UI features (such as
panning/zooming etc) are part of the APIs. UI development with these
API building blocks is relatively easy, and entry skill level is not
high. JavaScript will also work with any web server technologies
making the implementation very flexible. For fleet and asset
tracking, the JavaScript APIs provide vector overlay which is ideal
for showing real-time and historical positions. We can take the
example of Google maps which uses javaScript
extensively. The technique of providing greater user-interactivity by
performing asynchronous network requests with Javascript and
XMLHttpRequest has recently become known as Ajax. Maps actually uses
XmlHttpRequest sparingly, preferring a hidden IFrame with form
submission because it preserves browser history. It also uses JSON
for data transfer rather than XML, for performance reasons. These
techniques both fall under the broad Ajax umbrella.Fleet and asset tracking solutions provide significant value to organizations with mobile resources. By implementing a fleet solution that combines on premise software with Cloud mapping services, organizations can maximize benefits and minimize costs.
