Geographic Based Location System Arranged For Providing, Via A Web-Based Portal, Management Information Of Geographic Data And Non-Geographic Data Generated By A Plurality Of Wireless Communication Devices, And A Related Method
First Claim
1. A geographic based location system, comprising:
- a plurality of wireless communication devices, wherein each wireless communication device is arranged for obtaining geographic data and non-geographic data, and for communicating said geographic data and non-geographic data in frames over a wireless communication network;
a storage database server arranged for receiving said geographic data and non-geographic data over said wireless communication network, and for storing said geographic and non-geographic data in a storage database;
a presentation database server arranged for compressing said geographic and non-geographic data from said storage database to a presentation database, wherein said compressing of said geographic and said non-geographic data comprises compressing said geographic and said non-geographic data into segments of variable length, wherein a start of a segment is triggered by a change in said non-geographic data, and wherein data in said segments are stored incremental;
a web-based user portal arranged for receiving a query out of a predefined list of available queries from a user, performing said query on said presentation database and for displaying results of said query to said user, wherein said wireless communication devices are arranged to be installed in vehicles, wherein said geographic data are data representing a geographic location of a vehicle, and wherein said non-geographic data are data obtained from physical sensors installed in said vehicle, and wherein said communication devices are arranged to generate frames, wherein each frame contains geographic data representing one geographic location, and wherein a subsequent frame is generated whenever a predefined time period has elapsed and whenever said geographic location has altered with at least a predefined distance.

8. A method of visualizing geographic data and non-geographic data, said method comprising the steps of:
-
obtaining geographic data and non-geographic data by a wireless communication device; generating frames from said geographic data and non-geographic data and communicating said frames over a wireless communication network towards a storage database server; receiving said geographic data and non-geographic data and storing said geographic data and non-geographic data in a storage database; compressing said geographic data and non-geographic data in said storage database to a presentation database, wherein said compressing comprises compressing said geographic data and non-geographic data into segments of variable length, wherein a start of a segment is triggered by a change in said non-geographic data, and wherein data in said segments are stored incremental; receiving a query out of a predefined list of available queries from a user via a web-based user portal, performing said query on said presentation database and displaying results of said query to said user via said web-based user portal, wherein said geographic data are data representing a geographic location of a vehicle, and wherein said non-geographic data are data obtain from physical sensors installed in said vehicle, wherein each frame contains geographic data representing one geographic location, and wherein a subsequent frame is generated whenever a predefined time period has elapsed and whenever said geographic location has altered with at least a predefined distance. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)
