2 - System Overview
2.1 Overview
The entire purpose behind a fleet management system is to be able to remotely contact a vehicle,
determine its location or status, and do something meaningful with that information. This could include
displaying the vehicle location on a map, performing an address look-up, providing real-time driving
directions, updating the vehicles ETA, monitoring vehicle and driver status or dispatching the vehicle to
its next pick up.
These functions, of course, are completely dependent on the capabilities of the vehicle management
application. The role of the CalAmp LMU-3030™ is to deliver the location information when and where
it is needed.
A typical fleet management system based on a CalAmp device includes the following components:
A wireless data network
An LMU-3030™
Host Device (GPS NMEA only)
