Driver Intelligence

Driving performance made clear with Driver Intelligence

Driver Intelligence in Flowter

Driver Intelligence provides insight into driving performance. Via various dashboards in Flowter, data from three independent sources is combined. CAN-bus data, GPS and G-sensor data are processed through smart algorithms into one accurate and reliable driving profile. The settings are fully adjustable to the own operation, ensuring the analysis always reflects the reality of the situation. Drivers gain insight into their own driving performance and see where improvement is possible. This provides a concrete basis to work together towards lower fuel costs, less wear, better maintenance and a safer fleet.

What Driver Intelligence delivers

Driver Intelligence gives a complete overview of driving behaviour, developed from practice and tuned to the reality of the operation. Insight that is ready to use for steering. The benefits in a row:

  • Fuel consumption becomes visible. That gives a concrete basis for working together on lower consumption. Less idling, smoother acceleration, more use of cruise control.
  • Insight into driving behaviour helps reduce the risk of damage and accidents. That protects people, vehicles and the continuity of the operation.
  • Less strain on vehicles means less wear. Brake pads last longer, components are loaded less heavily. That translates into less maintenance and lower maintenance costs.
  • Lower fuel consumption leads directly to lower CO2 emissions. In this way drivers become an active part of the organisation's sustainability goals.

Driving data from three independent sources

Driver Intelligence combines CAN bus data, GPS and G-sensor data into a complete driving picture. The three data sources complement each other and are converted into usable driving insights through smart algorithms. Together they give an accurate and reliable picture of what happens on the road.

The Driver Intelligence solution was developed from practice, which is how we know that driving behaviour cannot be standardised. What applies to one vehicle does not apply to another. A vehicle with a heavy load behaves differently from an empty one. A tipper truck differently from a van. Only by measuring the right thing does usable insight arise. Driver Intelligence works with adjustable ranges per vehicle type and situation. These determine when a value is good, acceptable or a point of attention. This way the analysis always matches the operation itself.

Working together on better driving behaviour

Improving driving behaviour works best when the whole organisation takes part. Driver Intelligence gives drivers insight into their own performance and how it compares to the group average. Each driver receives a driving score that shows where their strengths lie and where improvement is possible. That makes progress visible and concrete.

A driving analysis for the moments that matter

During every trip there are moments that stand out. The way of braking, accelerating, taking corners and driving over bumps has a direct effect on safety, wear and fuel consumption. Not every situation is the same. Thresholds are therefore adjustable. Driving movements that fall outside that threshold are recorded as a so-called 'harsh event' and shown in the dashboard. This makes it immediately clear where the biggest gains can be made.

What is measured with our Driver Intelligence solution

Thresholds are adjustable per situation. The dashboard shows the following parts:

  • Fuel consumption
  • Driving events that fall outside the set range (harsh events) Idling
  • Cruise control use
  • Coasting percentage
  • Trip overview

Driver Intelligence as part of a complete asset intelligence platform

Driver Intelligence is one of the solutions within the GPS-Buddy platform and delivers more than interesting data. By combining three independent data sources, an accurate and reliable picture arises of what happens on the road. That forms the basis for an organisation to steer together towards fuel savings, maintenance, safety and sustainability. Combined with trip registration, emission reporting, asset tracking and more, Driver Intelligence is part of a complete asset intelligence platform. Everything that moves, visible in one platform.

Frequently asked questions and answers. Is your question not listed? Feel free to contact us.

What is Driver Intelligence?

Driver Intelligence is a module within the Flowter platform from GPS-Buddy. It maps driving performance per driver and per fleet based on CAN bus data, GPS and G-sensor data. That combination gives insight into fuel consumption, driving behaviour and safety.

How does Driver Intelligence help with fuel savings?

By making driving behaviour visible per driver, points for improvement become directly clear. Less idling, smoother acceleration and more cruise control use lead demonstrably to lower fuel consumption. 

How does Driver Intelligence contribute to safety on the road?

Irregular driving movements such as hard braking, taking corners too fast and sudden acceleration increase the risk of accidents and damage. Driver Intelligence makes these moments visible per driver. That gives the organisation a basis to steer specifically on safety.

Is the system adaptable to the organisation itself?

Yes. Thresholds are adjustable per vehicle type and working environment. What counts as an irregular driving movement for a van differs from what is normal for a truck.

What insight do drivers get through Driver Intelligence?

Driver Intelligence gives drivers insight into their own driving performance. Fuel consumption, cruise control use, coasting and irregular driving movements are all visible per trip. That makes driving behaviour open to discussion and gives drivers a concrete starting point for improvement.

Does Driver Intelligence also work for construction and infrastructure companies?

Yes. Driver Intelligence is suitable for any organisation with a fleet, including transport, construction and infrastructure.

Can Driver Intelligence be combined with other solutions?

Driver Intelligence is one solution within the Flowter platform from GPS-Buddy. Flowter brings trip registration, emission reporting, asset tracking and more together in one platform, without separate systems or extra input.
