IoT Technologies in Fleet Management

IoT technologies have filtered their way into almost every industry over the years, and you may be surprised to hear that they are now well embedded in the fleet management industry. From modern fuel management systems to GPS trackers on vehicles, the industry has hugely benefited from IoT technologies, and will continue to do so for years to come. Here, we discuss what the IoT actually is, whilst taking a look at some of the technologies used in the industry that utilise IoT extensively. What Is IoT? First and foremost, it’s essential that we address what IoT actually is and what it stands for. The Internet of Things, usually referred to as IoT, is a term that encompasses anything that is connected to the internet. In most cases, you’ll find that IoT refers to any objects that “talk” to each other, or in other words, are connected to each other. The IoT has grown rapidly in recent years, and has affected the way that each of us lives our lives today. For example, if you have a smart phone, it’s likely you have connected this up to another device via Bluetooth, whether that be a fitness tracking watch or your vehicles stereo. In the business world, IoT technologies are being used to connect devices with automated systems, which enables the technology to gather information, analyse it and then create some form of action. This helps humans in their job roles, as they are able to quickly gather data which they can then act upon to make improvements to their service
