Do You Need to Take Your Vehicle Telematics System to Higher Performance Levels?
This page has been created to help you learn more about how Tourmo AI can optimize vehicle telematics systems.
These resources answer frequently asked questions about how Tourmo makes it possible to overcome common telematics system challenges and get a better return on your investments.
What is Vehicle Telematics?
The expression "vehicle telematics" is a term that refers to the utilization of telematics and GPS technology for the remote tracking of both vehicle assets and drivers. These systems gather important data about a business's mobile assets and supply relevant safety and performance details to fleet managers and company stakeholders.
Vehicle telematics systems can collect telematics data directly from the vehicle itself (OBD telematics) or from mobile phones and tablets (mobile telematics systems). This technology can provide information on your vehicle and equipment's location, operation, speed, acceleration, fuel efficiency, and other properties.

How Do Vehicle Telematics Systems Work?
Vehicle telematics systems that use GPS and cellular technology can send data back to a central server in real-time for analysis. In other cases, each vehicle asset has a small device called a telematics unit installed to collect and transmit data. Telematics units can also receive commands from a central server, enabling fleet managers to remotely control specific aspects of the vehicle, such as setting speed limits or controlling the engine.
Telematics systems collect massive amounts of data on vehicle performance, driver behavior, and locations. Unfortunately, when these systems are not properly managed, they become overwhelming and make it difficult to analyze and extract meaningful and impactful insights, resulting in significant delays in decision-making.

Also, comprehensive driver scoring benefits your fleet by recognizing high-performing drivers and creating a competitive culture for continuous improvement.
In addition to providing and prioritizing drivers that are most risky the Tourmo program allows for the ability to easily identify high performers and positive recognizing them helping improve driver retention and reinforce good driving behaviors.
Q: Can Tourmo help increase fuel efficiency and minimize my fleet’s CO2 footprint?
A: Tourmo’s automated workflows help drivers learn which behaviors are having a negative impact on fuel consumption.
Further, our AI-powered solutions make it easy to monitor your fleet's fuel efficiency, performance, and environmental impact with the data you receive.
Q: Do we need to replace our current systems to use Tourmo AI?
A: No, we can work with and enhance your existing vehicle telematics systems and leverage your existing hardware and software data sources. There’s no costly “rip and replace” involved.
Our approach will enable you to maximize your existing investments while avoiding costs and delays associated with additional and disruptive changes.
Q: Will AI technology reduce the need for fleet managers or lead to job loss?
A: Simply put, the answer is no. In the future, advanced technology will be required to automate tasks, analyze large amounts of data, and make predictions. The rise of advanced technology, like Tourmo AI, will increase opportunities for advancement while relieving workers of the burden of repetitive and time-consuming tasks. Instead, it will enable them to concentrate on tasks that require human supervision.
