System and method for generating real-time alert notifications in an asset tracking system
View Patent ↗A system and method for generating real-time alert notifications includes a database for receiving in real-time at least one event, a processing engine for analyzing the at least one event with respect to a plurality of stored events, the processing engine also for determining whether the at least one event meets a defined condition, if the at least one event meets the defined condition, determining a prescriptive action and forwarding the prescriptive action to a user.
1. A system for generating real-time alert notifications, comprising:
a database for receiving in real-time at least one event; and
a processing engine for analyzing the at least one event with respect to a plurality of stored events, the processing engine being further for:
determining whether the at least one event meets a defined condition;
if the at least one event meets the defined condition, selecting a prescriptive action from a directory of prescriptive actions, and generating in real-time a proactive alert notification with the prescriptive action for a user, wherein the prescriptive action is tailored based on a user role and contextual data related to the at least one event; and
forwarding the prescriptive action to the user.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one event relates to vehicle performance or driver performance in an asset tracking system.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the user is selected from a driver, a dispatcher and a third party.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the prescriptive action is based on a geographic location.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of stored events are collected over a period of time.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the prescriptive action is based on an analysis of the plurality of stored events and a subject vehicle.
7. The system of claim 5 , wherein the prescriptive action is based on an analysis of the plurality of stored events and a subject driver.
8. A method for providing real-time alert notifications, comprising:
receiving in real-time at least one event;
analyzing the at least one event with respect to a plurality of stored events;
determining whether the at least one event meets a defined condition;
if the at least one event meets the defined condition, selecting a prescriptive action from a directory of prescriptive actions, and generating in real-time a proactive alert notification with the prescriptive action for a user, wherein the prescriptive action is tailored based on a user role and contextual data related to the at least one event; and
forwarding the prescriptive action to the user.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the at least one event relates to vehicle performance or driver performance in an asset tracking system.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the user is selected from a driver, a dispatcher and a third party.
11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the prescriptive action is based on a geographic location.
12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the plurality of stored events are collected over a period of time.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the prescriptive action is based on an analysis of the plurality of stored events and a subject vehicle.
14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the prescriptive action is based on an analysis of the plurality of stored events and a subject driver.
15. The method of claim 8 , wherein the prescriptive action is selected based on the at least one event.
16. The method of claim 8 , wherein the user is a driver of a vehicle, and wherein the proactive alert notification is sent to the driver while operating the vehicle.
17. A system for generating real-time alert notifications in an asset tracking application, comprising:
a database for receiving in real-time at least one event related to an asset tracking application; and
a processing engine for analyzing the at least one event with respect to a plurality of stored events, the plurality of stored events relating to asset tracking, the processing engine being further for:
determining whether the at least one event meets a defined condition;
if the at least one event meets the defined condition, selecting a prescriptive action from a directory of prescriptive actions, and generating in real-time a proactive alert notification with the prescriptive action for a user, wherein the prescriptive action is tailored based on a user role and contextual data related to the at least one event; and
forwarding the prescriptive action to the user.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the at least one event relates to vehicle performance or driver performance.
19. The system of claim 17 , wherein the user is selected from a driver, a dispatcher and a third party.
20. The system of claim 17 , wherein the prescriptive action is based on a geographic location.
21. The system of claim 17 , wherein the plurality of stored events are collected over a period of time.
22. The system of claim 21 , wherein the prescriptive action is based on an analysis of the plurality of stored events and a subject vehicle.
