Calculating driver behaviour (eco-driving)

Some points on eco-driving in our blog.

Just for your information. We are still working on the algorithms and penalties in report done week ago may still be slightly different then after a week for the same trip. The difference should not be too much, just slightly different, especially for more precise eco-driving hardware.
Now we have more data, more feedback and can make algorithm better in all cases.

Guys,

you really should spent some time and test / play with the new Eco App. Its cool. Its usefull. Its makes fun to compare your own driving behavior with that of your collegues. it helps selling. Take the time and learn how to use it! Just a tip from my side.

how do i know if my tracker sends eco-driving data?

Hi Small-GPRS,

basically you can use ALL hardware which has a G Sensor inside and send different messages for different types of violations, for example one sensor message for harsh braking, one sensor message for harsh acceleration, one for harsh curving.

we use other HW which is not mentioned in the gurtam hw supported list and it works perfect ;-)

for sure i know, that Ruptela has G Sensor, Gosafe has G Sensor, ATrack has G Sensor and Teltonika has G Sensor (all of them can be defines to send data on event, you than just need to define a sensor (or multiple sensors).
Sometimes its a bit tricky to configure them, on teltonika for example you have param253=1 if its hard braking, 2 if its hard acceleraton and 3 if its harsh curving (or vise versa, i am lazy to look into the sensors)
so i just added 3x sensor with param253 but added a calculation table where i said: y=1 only when for example x=2 or so...
just ping me if you need help with that HW.

Wolf,

First summer day and i have some good news
