1. A gateway apparatus, for managing local-device access to vehicle data, comprising:

  • an input/output component configured to receive requests for vehicle data from a local device, and send vehicle data to the local device;

    a hardware-based processing unit in communication with the input/output component;

    a non-transitory computer-readable storage device in communication with the hardware-based processing unit and comprising an access unit, a control unit, and a data unit, wherein;

    the access unit comprises access-unit code that, when executed by the hardware-based processing unit, receives, by way of the input/output component, a request for the vehicle data from the local device and determines whether the gateway apparatus may satisfy the request;

    the control unit comprises control-unit code that, when executed by the hardware-based processing unit, determines, in response to the access unit determining that the gateway apparatus may satisfy the request, what vehicle data will be provided to the local device;

    the data unit comprises data-unit code that, when executed by the hardware-based processing unit, prepares the vehicle data to be provided to the local device by way of the input/output component, and sends the vehicle data to the local device by way of the input/output component;

    the control-unit code comprises data-quality-decision-module code that, when executed by the hardware-based processing unit, determines quality for the vehicle data to be provided to the local device;

    the quality indicates a resolution of the vehicle data to be provided to the local device; and

    the vehicle data is up-sampled by the data-quality-decision-module code, when executed to determine the quality for the vehicle data to be provided to the local device, to provide a higher quality of vehicle data, in one or more ways, than the vehicle data requested by the local device.
