  • Abstract
    In recent years, vehicle monitoring system is widely used in the logistics and distribution system to get the real-time information of vehicles or goods and make logistics scheme. With the increasing of motor vehicles, it´s more and more difficult to grasp for social enterprises and institutions on the management of vehicles. All units near exist some issues, such as poor efficiency of vehicle management; unauthorized use of enterprise´s cars; excessive use of vehicles. The system described in this paper combines currently popular technology, wireless sensor networks, global positioning technology, geographic information systems, etc. Besides real-time monitoring of the location of the vehicle, the system also supports other types of sensors to monitor vehicle storage environment to meet the special tasks. It also has capability to send out alerts when some observations violate the predefined business rules. System using SaaS (software-as-a-service) architecture and a number of companies sharing the same system, it can effectively reduce the cost of enterprise systems.
