Get all the data you need in Tracking Report

2025-02-10

Now we are introducing a significant upgrade in the Tracking Report. We have made several enhancements to improve your experience and provide more flexibility in analyzing your data.

Improvement in the export to Excel

Previously, the Excel export was limited to 3000 events. With this release, we are removing that limitation, allowing you to export all the data you need. Whether you want to analyze it in the portal or in Excel, you can now load and export as many rows as you require.

Select all vehicles in the same report

Before, the maximum amount of vehicles in the report was 200. Now, we have added the ability to select all vehicles in your fleet in the report. This makes it easier for you to gather data and events for your entire fleet, simplifying your analysis process.

Improved user interface

We have given the Tracking Report a fresh new design. One of the key improvements is the ability to change column sizes. This feature is particularly useful when tracking events with long names, as it allows you to adjust the column widths for better visibility.

We have also introduced new "Select all" and "Clear all" buttons in the filter section. These buttons make it even easier for you to select and filter the data you need, streamlining your analysis workflow.

Trip View for Individual Vehicles

Just like in the previous version of the report, when you search for data for a single vehicle, you will find the option to view trips aggregated over time with ignition on. This feature allows you to analyze specific vehicle behavior and patterns.

What is the Tracking Report?

The Tracking Report provides timestamped vehicle events, including information such as door openings, excessive idling, vehicle start times, and entering and leaving zones. Each event provides detailed information such as the vehicle's address, battery voltage, speed, temperature, driver, and more.

You can utilize the Tracking Report in various ways, including:
Estimating the arrival time of a vehicle at a specific location
Analyzing door open times and arrival patterns at each bus stop.
Analyzing vehicle weight.
Studying battery levels in relation to temperatures.
Identifying instances of overspeeding or harsh driving styles by vehicles or drivers.
Viewing the odometer value reported at a precise location along with an event.

To access the Tracking Report, simply open the Report tool and select Tracking Report from the menu.

Please note the following additional information

Tracking Report is available for vehicles with the Event service but is not yet available for new coaches.
The Excel export will include the "Address" parameter for the first 3000 events. For events exceeding this count, the Address field will be omitted. If you want to see the location, you can open the parameter filter and add latitude and longitude as parameters in your export.
The Excel export is limited to a maximum of 1,000,000 rows due to Excel spreadsheet limitations.
