METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING DRIVING PERFORMANCE VARIABLES
First Claim
1. A method for determining a value of an event performance variable associated with a driving event, the method comprising:
- identifying a driving event which occurred during a driving session of a vehicle;
providing a plurality of indicators associated with a driving event of a type that characterizes the identified driving event;
retrieving respective values for each of the plurality of indicators associated with the identified driving event from one or more sensors located in the vehicle being driven;
providing a mathematical relationship that represents the event performance variable as a function of the plurality of indicators, wherein the mathematical relationship represents an event of the type characterizing the identified driving event; and
determining value of the event performance variable based on the mathematical relationship provided, by applying the values retrieved for each of the plurality of indicators.

Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for determining a value of an event performance variable associated with a driving event, and/or for determining a session performance variable associated with at least one driving session. The method comprising: identifying a driving event which occurred during a driving session of a vehicle; providing a plurality of indicators associated with such a driving event; retrieving respective values for each of the plurality of indicators from one or more sensors located in the vehicle being driven; providing a mathematical relationship that represents the event performance variable as a function of the plurality of indicators, wherein the mathematical relationship represents an event of the type characterizing the identified driving event; and determining value of the event performance variable based on the mathematical relationship provided, by applying the values retrieved for each of the plurality of indicators.

14. A computer program product encoding a computer program stored on a non-transitory computer readable storage medium for executing a set of instructions by a computer system comprising one or more computer processors for carrying out a method for determining a value of an event performance variable associated with a driving event, the method comprising:
-
identifying a driving event which occurred during a driving session of a vehicle; providing a plurality of indicators associated with a driving event type that characterizes the identified driving event; retrieving respective values for each of the plurality of indicators associated with the identified driving event and the duration of the period during which said identified driving event took place; providing a mathematical relationship that represents the event performance variable as a function of the plurality of indicators and of time duration of a driving event, wherein the mathematical relationship represents an event of the type characterizing the identified driving event; determining value of the event performance variable based on the mathematical relationship provided, by applying the values retrieved for each of the plurality of indicators and of the retrieved time duration. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
