Introduction

• The Transportation sector is faced with safety,
  security, transit visa problems.
• Custom Departments of SouthEast European
  Countries are faced with tracking sensitive and
  hazardous good transportation and transit
  time-outs.
• International transportation customers need
  faster and reliable transportation.
• Transportation information should be shared and
  directed to the related parties through
  INTEGRATED SMART FLEET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM via
  Internet and GSM with some authorisation
  limitations.

Objectives of the Project

• The main objectives of the project are
• To co-ordinate and promote International
  integration of transport operations using
  GSMSatelliteInternet systems and technologies
  for vehicle/shipment tracking, fleet/traffic
  management and providing safetysecurity,
• To identify and study in detail problems of fleet
  management and control,
• To provide the electronic data exchange among SEC
  in order to clarify the difficulties in
  transportation coordination,
• Tracking/tracing of unit loads - a distributed
  architecture to exchange and share tracing and
  tracking information between operators in
  different countries,
• Serving the communications needs of the 2000s and
  exploiting existing technology efficiently
  (mobile data exchanging),

System Features

• Automatic vehicle tracking according to its
  programming,
• Periodically (time-bound),
• instantaneously,
• according to the pre-defined (over the air)
  coordinates,
• according to elapsed displacement,
• when exceeding speed threshold
• Two-way free-format massaging,
• Form content and format of the form transferring,
• Pre-defined message exchanging,
• Emergency status message sending when emergency
  button is pressed,
• Intelligent route history reporting,
• Possibility of connection of peripheral devices
  such as various type of sensors,

12
Advantages of the System

• Statistical information are collected and
  decisions for international transportation
  business will be based on concrete data
• Monitoring of unaccompanied loads becomes
  possible (including hazardous goods),
• The quality of service will be improved because
  of availability of information on a timely basis
  and better planning,
• Communications costs will decrease because data
  communication will be preferred instead of voice,
• Shippers will be notified of possible delays in
  delivery times,
• Truck breakdown costs could get less because
  repair-works could start sooner,
• Administrative costs will decrease,
• Maintenance activities will be scheduled more
  efficiently,
• Visa problems will be handled faster and more
  reliable,
