Patent Images
1. A vehicle history user interface for providing history information for a plurality of vehicles, the user interface comprising:
- a first vehicle history timeline comprising first vehicle status data corresponding to a first vehicle, the first vehicle status data reflecting first location data obtained from the first vehicle;
a second vehicle history timeline comprising second vehicle status data corresponding to a second vehicle, the second vehicle status data reflecting second location data obtained from the second vehicle;
wherein the first and second vehicle history timelines are configured to be displayed together on the same time scale; and
wherein the vehicle history user interface is configured to be generated by a computer system comprising computer hardware.

Abstract
A vehicle management system can generate a vehicle management user interface that depicts vehicle history information in timelines or graphical timelines. These history timelines can include information regarding vehicle location, speed, and idling, among other useful information. The graphical nature of the history timelines can quickly convey vehicle tracking details and potential problems, such as idling and congregation, to an administrator. Further, history timelines for multiple vehicles can be displayed in parallel, allowing comparison between histories for different vehicles.
