3. 01. Introduction
VTS is a service enabled through positioning technologies including GPS, GPRS and remote telemetry with application
software, wireless communications to track, control and manage the of vehicles in your fleet. With a GPS device installed in
your vehicles, VTS will empower you to track the exact locations of your vehicles and effectively manage them. The
information is interfaced online or through SMS and could be accessed from your mobile phone.
01.01. The Fleet Management System
A pictorial representation, of the Columbus Fleet Management System.
In this the Columbus fleet management device is installed in the yellow bus, the device receives signals
from the GPS satellites and calculate its time and position. The acquired time and position is transferred
to our remote server via GPRS, through the SIM card in the device.
The positions and time are securely stored in the server, which can be accessed by Columbus
applications. The Columbus has desktop, mobile and web applications to monitor the status of the fleet.

5. 03. The Application
The Columbus has desktop, mobile and web applications to monitor the status of the fleet.
03.01. The Desktop Application
The Columbus desktop application is the primary and the most powerful application for
monitoring/tracking. The screenshot of a Columbus console is as shown below.
The desktop application is capable of generating various reports as shown in the next pages, which can
be customized to match the existing reporting format.
Route History/Play Back
Columbus Tracking keeps the history of the vehicle's movements accurately. The users can play the
vehicle's movements for the past few days (up to 3 months) and find out the exact nature of movement
or route taken by the vehicle. The route history reports are also downloadable in PDF/Excel/XML and
Google Earth (KML) formats.
Fencing
VTS has strong fencing capabilities. Users can draw an area on the map and then configure alerts if the
fence is breached.
Alerts
VTS has many types of alerts like Over speed, Idle time, Way point reach, Area Reach and Exit, Route
breach, Fence Idle, Scheduled alerts, Cross District, Cross state etc., The alerts are generated by the use
of latest technologies like Complex Event Processors. This ensures that the alerts are generated

When and where?
The Power of Knowing
We integrate a range of technologies including GPS, GPRS with application software, wireless communications, and
services to provide complete solutions, which allow customers to collect, manage and analyze information faster and easier,
making them more productive, efficient and profitable.
How?
Does it work
The (GPS) is a constellation of 24 satellites orbiting the earth. These satellites have very accurate clocks and use radio
signals to broadcast location information. A GPS receiver on the ground picks up the signals from the satellites to determine
the location of an entity. With our software, a base station and network links, location can be determined.
Who?
Should use it
The usage and application areas of this solution are unlimited. You could be a travel company engaging vehicles, a school
doing daily shuttles. The benefits are generic but on application to your specific environment, it will help optimize your
operations in terms of cost and control. Our services can be customized based on your requirements.
