Abstract
A vehicle telemetry system allows remote access to information and services relating to the operation and performance of one or more vehicles. Information from a telemetry module mounted on a vehicle is received by an application service provider via wireless communication, where it is processed by one or more computer servers. Users then access the computer servers through various means, such as the Worldwide Web, in order to obtain various telemetry data relating to the vehicle(s).
