System and method for creating profile of fuel quality
First Claim
1. A non-transitory machine-readable medium including instructions for creating profiles of fuel quality, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to:
- receive vehicle performance data of a vehicle, the vehicle performance data describing the vehicle'"'"'s performance over a time period;
associate the vehicle performance data with fuel used by the vehicle during the time period;
analyze the vehicle performance data and the fuel to calculate a performance metric by;
determining a driving profile of the vehicle during the time period;
identifying a fuel mixture used during the time period, the fuel mixture comprising fuel from at least two refuelings of the vehicle associated with the time period;
calculating a confidence factor based on the fuel mixture, the confidence factor indicating a confidence of the vehicle performance data in view of the fuel mixture of the at least two refuelings; and
calculating a fuel performance rating for the driving profile, the fuel performance rating weighted by the confidence factor; and
store the performance metric in a performance database.
