Open source fleet management and vehicle tracking system开源车队管理和车辆跟踪系统

Most organizations these days own at least a few vehicles for various purposes.大多数组织这些天至少拥有各种用途的车辆数。 A construction company would have several trucks and tractors while a travel agency might own several vans and multi purpose vehicles (MPVs).一家建筑公司将有多个卡车和拖拉机而旅行社可能拥有数位车和多用途车（MPVs）。

Just like equipments in the office such as printers and servers, vehicles too needs to be maintained and most importantly tracked.就像在办公室设备，如打印机和服务器，车辆也需要保持，最重要的跟踪。

Lets just say that you're an owner of a waste management and garbage collection company.就让我们说，你是一个废物管理和垃圾回收公司的老板。 If you have twenty (20) trucks deployed to several areas, how do you ensure that each truck has gone to the area that it's supposed to collect garbage from?

The only way to know is when a customer calls in to complain that their garbage hasn't been collected for more than a week.唯一的办法知道的是，当客户打电话来抱怨说，在他们的垃圾还没有收集到一个多星期。 And when you ask your truck driver if he's been to the area, he said that he has, but both parties doesn't have any proof.当你问你的卡车司机，如果他到过该地区，他说他了，但双方没有任何证据。

To eliminate cases like this from happening, it's good to implement a fleet management system (FMS) where vehicles can be equipped with a GPS device which sends the following data to the server on a predefined interval:为了消除这样的情况下发生，最好实行车队管理系统（FMS），车辆可以与全球定位系统装置在一个预定义的发送间隔下面的数据到服务器装备：

• Date & time日期和时间
• Location (longitude & latitude)位置（经度和纬度）
• Altitude (feet)海拔（英尺）
• Speed (mph)速度（时速）
• Street Address街道地址

If every garbage truck is installed with this GPS devices to send information of its whereabouts, it's now possible to track:如果每个垃圾车与此GPS设备安装派遣其下落的消息，它现在可以跟踪：

• where your trucks have been to在您的车已到
• if the truck drivers were speeding如果卡车司机超速驾驶
• where was the truck on a specific date and time如果她是在一个特定的日期和时间，卡车
• how long did the truck drivers take their lunch breaks没有多久，卡车司机以他们的午餐休息

Another benefit of a fleet tracking system is to record a vehicle's mileage and its last service repair date.另外一个跟踪系统车队的好处，是记录车辆的行驶里程和维修服务的最后日期。 It is vital for all vehicles to be serviced and maintained on time in order for it to work well and to prevent accidents from occurring.至关重要的是所有车辆进行保养和时间，以便使它运转良好，以防止发生意外维持。

There are many types of FMS available out there in the market today.有许多类型的柔性制造系统可在市场内有今天。 If budget is tight and you have some time to create a prototype of your own then an open source fleet management and vehicle tracking system may be right for you.如果预算紧张，你有一些时间来建立自己的原型，然后一个开放源码的车队管理和车辆跟踪系统可能适合你。

OpenGTS OpenGTS is an open source project designed specifically to provide web-based GPS tracking capability for a fleet of vehicles.是一个开源项目，专门提供基于Web的GPS跟踪一个车队的能力。

Some OpenGTS features include:一些OpenGTS功能包括：

• Web-based authentication基于Web的验证
• Customizable web interface可定制的网络界面
• Customizable mapping service自定义的地图服务
• Geo fenced area地理围栏区

With OpenGTS web-based application, owners or supervisors can securely log on to the system to view information regarding their vehicles.随着OpenGTS基于网络的应用，业主或主管可以安全地登录到该系统，以查看有关其车辆。

But wait a minute!但是，且慢！ What about the part where you would install a device on the vehicle for it to send and transfer GPS data?怎么样的一部分，您可以在汽车上安装的设备它发送和传输GPS数据？

For this to work, you'll need to check out another open source project called这项工作，你需要签出另一个开源项目名为 OpenDMTP OpenDMTP – a protocol and framework which allows bi-directional data communications between devices (client) and servers over the Internet. - 协议和框架，允许双向数据设备之间（客户端）和互联网服务器的通信。

By combining both同时采用 OpenGTS OpenGTS and和 OpenDMTP OpenDMTP , you can set up your very own open source fleet management system to begin tracking your organization's vehicles and its whereabouts today! ，您可以设置你自己的开放源码的车队管理系统，开始跟踪您的组织的车辆和现在的行踪！ Hope it helps!希望它帮助！
