What is Telematics for Construction Equipment?
How does Heavy Equipment Telematics for Construction Work?
Modern vehicles and heavy equipment all contain various computers and an Engine Control Unit (ECU) that controls the engine and various aspects of the asset. These computers also contain a wealth of maintenance and diagnostic information than can be read via various standardized plug-in interfaces.
Fleet trackers and other cellular GPS trackers for heavy equipment are designed to plug into the standard OBD II or JBUS vehicle interface or wire directly into the asset engine. In addition to transmitting live GPS location (position) information over a cellular network connection, these devices are also capable of transmitting fleet management telematics data including speed, fault codes, engine hours and other important diagnostic information.
