INTRODUCTION
Public safety and security are paramount and to a large extent rests on the efficiency of security agencies. Meanwhile, speed, coordination of actions, and reliability of information are the key factors that ensure our security officers are performing their assigned duties properly. In most cases, time is very valuable and our security agencies have to be at the needed location as fast as possible to prevent theft or other crimes that can lead to even more tragic consequences
CHALLENGE
For our Security Agencies work to be effective and efficient, Operation Centres need to know the exact positions of the vehicles or fleet, and which of them are free and ready to respond to incidents. Thus, getting instant and correct information about the vehicle locations and duty statuses is vital. When an incident occurs, operators are required to identify the vehicles in the nearest locations and which of them can be dispatched. It is critical for Security Agencies not to waste time on communication while crime is in action.
As most of our Security Agencies vehicles are being operated nonstop, they need to get timely maintenance to eliminate breakdowns in the middle of duty. And not acting on overdue maintenance can cause disruptions in Security Agencies service and bring unexpected expenses.
SOLUTION
Siliconfusion offers a solution to the above-mentioned challenges. Our professional tracking devices with 4G (LTE Cat 1) capability (including fallback to 2G (GSM) and 3G (UMTS) networks) can be set to determine location automatically and that will help in coordinating fleets more effectively.
With our advanced security, all data will be encrypted and transferred via VPN.
By getting real-time information on the present duty status of our police, ambulance personnel status, an operator can in a few seconds communicate with the available Security Agencies officers and inform on the reported incident. Thus, trackers can significantly save time in assigning incidents. Also, setting reminders for maintenance based on vehicle mileage helps to avoid accidents on the roads.
Our tracking devices can be used with a third-party device that simulates different values. Connected via analog input, the tracker can detect duty status (Ready, Busy, Lunch, or Going to the incident) by differentiating voltage, e.g., 5 volts can be set for duty status ‘Ready’. This way, operators can observe duty status online. Security Agencies’ siren can be monitored with a professional tracker as well.
Additionally, it is very important for Security Agencies to know vehicle door status, especially when the arrested persons are seated in the back. Our Security Agencies can get door status and much more – such data as mileage, fuel consumption, fuel level, RPM, engine temperature, and accelerator pedal position. These features of the GPS tracker will maximize fleet efficiency.
For safety procedures, driver identification can be enabled, so that only the authorized person can ride a vehicle. There are a few ways to identify driver – by RFID card or iButton.
