お問い合わせIoT in transportation and logistics
By connecting security networks and monitoring vehicle performance and locations with IoT, companies, city managers, and even citizens can all take part in making transportation safer and more efficient. Build location solutions with Azure Maps, a Microsoft platform of geospatial APIs, powered by world-class mobility and location technology partners.
Keep traffic flowing with fleet management
Anticipate and manage deviations with a fleet management solution built entirely from Azure IoT products. In this demo, see how to detect a vehicle issue, calculate a new route, find the nearest service stop, and minimize route delays.
Fleet management
IoT leverages real-time device and location data, powered by Azure Maps, to manage daily operations, quickly analyze root causes, and perform predictive maintenance.
An alert signals an issue in the fleet
The fleet manager monitors dozens of vehicles on routes across Europe. Through remote maintenance, they can see that there’s an incident in Germany requiring immediate attention.
A deeper look at the problem
The fleet manager checks which type of vehicle is generating this alarm. In Germany, there are 872 active vehicles carrying three types of goods: refrigerated, dry, and hazardous. The alert is traced to one of the 370 vehicles carrying hazardous goods.
A deeper look at the problem
The fleet manager traces the alert to one of the vehicles near Frankfurt. When they zoom in, Azure Maps dynamically renders greater levels of detail, including city names and major highways.
A real-time view of routes in Frankfurt
The fleet manager identifies the vehicle creating the alert near Frankfurt. In this view, they can visualize real-time traffic in the city.
Route information
The fleet manager can learn this vehicle’s route, the driver’s name, the route origin and destination, the original estimated arrival time, the new delayed arrival time, and the type of cargo the route is optimized for.
Root-cause analysis
Finally, the fleet manager gets a closer look at telemetry from the various IoT sensors aboard the vehicle.
Root-cause analysis
The alert was generated by the cooling-unit sensor, triggered by an increase in humidity.
Rerouting the driver
Using Time Series Insights on the left, the fleet manager sees that the cooling unit’s humidity threshold has been crossed, requiring the driver to be rerouted to the nearest depot. Using Azure Maps, they can identify the nearest depot and create a new route for the driver.
Alerting maintenance crews and scheduling a replacement
Through Dynamics CRM integration, the fleet manager issues a ticket to alert the depot’s maintenance crew of the problem and schedules a replacement truck and driver.
Calculating a new route and communicating with the driver
The fleet manager calculates a new route based on the same parameters as the original route, including vehicle type, cargo type, and destination, and it’s sent to the new driver.
Issue resolved
The fleet manager identified the source of the sensor alert, calculated a new route for the driver, and assigned the route to a new driver. The fleet manager can now return to the original view to oversee the rest of the fleet.
Transportation and logisticsare doing great things with IoT
The Alaska Department of Transportation (DOT) outsmarts mother nature with IoT.
Daniel Schacher Maintenance Superintendent, Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities“With WeatherCloud, we’ve empowered our staff to be more proactive in fighting winter storms.”
TEXA S.p.A. Gives consumers, fleet managers, and mechanics mobile access to insights from vehicles.
Riccardo Zamana, IoT Platform and Hybrid Cloud Services Director“By analyzing sensor data from a connected car in Microsoft Azure, drivers can see alerts about engine issues and metrics about gas consumption and driving performance, such as idle time. They can also configure their own recipe for rating their driving style and then drill down for details.”
Rolls-Royce helps airlines get the most out of their engines by analyzing smart transportation data generated during flight.
Alex Dulewicz Head of Marketing for Services Rolls-Royce, Civil Aerospace Division“We see real value in collaborating with an organization that is already leading the way with its established software capabilities and data analytics.”
