Telematics Insights

What is Telematics?

Telematics is an interdisciplinary field that encompasses telecommunications, vehicular technologies, road transportation, road safety, electrical engineering (sensors, instrumentation, wireless communications, etc.), and computer science (e.g., multimedia, Internet, Wireless Communications). It is most commonly used in vehicles, combining GPS technology with on-board diagnostics to record and transmit data about vehicle performance, location, and driver behavior. This data is often used for fleet management, insurance purposes, and vehicle tracking.
