Intangles Vehicle Realtime Location
The Intangles Vehicle Realtime Location DocType is designed to capture and transmit the live geographical location of vehicles. It acts as a virtual data bridge that receives real-time updates from the Intangles system and pushes this data to other connected modules within ERPNext.
Overview
This DocType helps in monitoring the current position, speed, and direction of vehicles. It provides instant visibility into vehicle movements, ensuring effective fleet tracking and management. The data is pushed in real time to other applications, allowing live map updates or driver tracking within integrated systems.
Fields Description
- Vehicle No: The registration number of the vehicle sending real-time data.
- Device ID: Identifier of the tracking device installed in the vehicle.
- ERP Time Stamp: The date and time when the location data was received and recorded in ERPNext.
- Overall Response: The complete raw data received from the Intangles system, usually in structured JSON format.
How It Works
- The Intangles system collects vehicle location and movement data in real time from the tracking device.
- The data includes key details such as latitude, longitude, speed, and heading.
- When this information reaches ERPNext, it is processed and pushed to the Intangles Vehicle Realtime Location DocType.
- If integrated with the Lnder Driver app, the data is forwarded to its socket interface for real-time vehicle tracking and dashboard visualization.
- The DocType itself is virtual, meaning data is not permanently stored but used for quick transmission and display.
Usage
- View live vehicle location updates on integrated dashboards or maps.
- Monitor vehicle speed and direction to ensure safe and efficient operation.
- Enable real-time alerts and tracking for field operations and fleet movement.
- Push data instantly to connected systems such as driver management or logistics modules.
Data Flow
- Vehicles continuously send real-time data to the Intangles system.
- ERPNext receives this data and temporarily stores it in the Intangles Vehicle Realtime Location DocType.
- The system extracts key metrics like latitude, longitude, speed, and heading.
- This information is pushed through a socket connection to integrated modules, allowing live tracking and updates.
