First Claim
1. A computer system for monitoring the number of times a delivery vehicle backs up in a geofenced area, the computer system comprising at least one computer processor and a memory, the computer system being configured to:
- define a geofenced area surrounding a geographic area;
associate the geofenced area with a delivery vehicle;
receive information associated with the geofenced area, including (a) receiving zoning information associated with the geofenced area and (b) determining a zoning classification associated with the geofenced area based at least in part on the received zoning information;
define a back up limit for the geofenced area based at least in part on the determined zoning classification, the backup limit defining a number of times a delivery vehicle operating within the geofenced area is permitted to back up while operating the delivery vehicle within the geofenced area;
assign one or more parameters to the geofenced area based at least in part on the information received, wherein (a) at least one of the one or more assigned parameters is used to monitor the performance of a delivery vehicle driver while the delivery vehicle driver is operating the delivery vehicle within the geofenced area and (b) at least one of the one or more parameters comprises the backup limit; and
monitor a number of times the delivery vehicle operating within the geofenced area backs up while the delivery vehicle is within the geofenced area.

Abstract
A computer system that is configured to: (A) define a geofence surrounding a geographic area; (B) gather information associated with the geofenced area; and (C) assign one or more parameters to the geofenced area based on the information gathered, wherein at least one of the assigned parameters is used to monitor the performance of a delivery vehicle driver while the delivery vehicle driver is operating a delivery vehicle within the geofenced area. In particular embodiments, the parameters include a backup limit defining a number of times a delivery vehicle operating within the geofenced area is permitted to back up while operating the delivery vehicle within the geofenced area (e.g., during a particular delivery cycle). In other embodiments, the parameters include a maximum speed limit for the geofenced area. The system may be adapted to automatically generate an alert in response to the delivery vehicle operating outside of the defined parameters.
