Patent Images
1. A method for analyzing the performance of a driver of a vehicle, using one or more metrics, in a transit organization, comprising:
- collecting, from one or more sources of acceleration data on the vehicle in each collection period during a unit measurement, metrics, the metrics comprising a set of acceleration metrics from the vehicle;
obtaining a set of worst possible scores for the metrics during the unit measurement;
summarizing said metrics from each collection period collected from said vehicle during the unit measurement; and
scoring the performance of the driver of the vehicle for the unit measurement based on the summarizing and the obtaining, creating a score per unit measurement;
associating a driver with a vehicle by comparing planned service data and actual service data;
wherein planned service data is indicative of a driver scheduled to operate the vehicle prior to data being collected and actual service data is based on a driver identification system within the vehicle once the vehicle is in operation;
wherein said scoring the performance of the driver accounts for said driver driving different vehicles as determined by said associating a driver with a vehicle step.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a system and method for analyzing performance data in a transit organization. Accelerometer metrics are collected for a vehicle along a first axis. The metrics collected from the vehicle are summarized by unit measurement. The metrics summarized by unit measurement are then stored in storage.

12. A system for analyzing the performance of a driver of a vehicle, using one or more metrics, in a transit organization, comprising:
-
a set of acceleration data sources; an on-board unit (OBU) configured to; collect, from one or more sources of acceleration data on the vehicle in each collection period during a unit measurement, metrics, the metrics comprising a set of acceleration metrics from the vehicle; transmit the metrics to a application data server; and an application data server, configured to; receive the metrics from the OBU; obtain a set of worst possible scores for the metrics during the unit measurement; summarize said metrics from each collection period collected from said vehicle during the unit measurement; and score the performance of the driver of the vehicle for the unit measurement based on the summarizing and the obtaining, creating a score per unit measurement associate a driver with a vehicle by comparing planned service data and actual service data;
wherein planned service data is indicative of a driver scheduled to operate the vehicle prior to data being collected and actual service data is based on a driver identification system within the vehicle once the vehicle is in operation;wherein said scoring the performance of the driver accounts for said driver driving different vehicles as determined by said associating a driver with a vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)
