IoT Sensors for Better Fleet Management

What are IoT Sensors?

Internet of Things or IoT sensors are hardware
that can collect on-board data from the
vehicles and send them to authorized
software.

These sensors are ideal for reducing human
effort into fuel tracking, engine and tire
supervision, etc.

Why Integrate Software with Sensors?

On-board sensors collect crucial information such as vehicle load, tire
pressure, engine health, and acceleration. They send this information to
software that further curates and analyzes data to form actionable reports.



With the help of the reports formed through sensor integration, fleet
managers get necessary insights into their fleet productivity and expenses.
They can then take appropriate measures to increase fleet efficiency.

Important Sensors For
Better Fleet Management

When looking for good fleet management
software, ensure that it allows flexible
sensor integration. However, the
following sensors are crucial for
exponential business growth!

Fuel Level Sensors

These sensors allow you to keep track of:

Fuel filling
Fuel ejection
Fuel consumption

Through fuel level sensors, you can stay safe
from pileration and also understand the fuel
consumption rate and patterns.

Accelerometers

Accelerometers are ideal for tracking driver
behavior such as:

Braking pattern
Rate of acceleration

Harsh braking and abrupt acceleration lead to
excessive fuel consumption that you can reduce
by training drivers better.

Load Sensors

Load sensors are a boon for the waste
management and last-mile delivery sectors
because they monitor the total weight on a
vehicle. This information can be used for:

Consignment tracking
Proof of delivery
Monitoring engine health

Cabin Thermometers

For vehicles carrying cold-chain supplies,
cabin thermometers are ideal since they:

Constantly monitor cabin temperature
Alert fleet managers when the
temperature falls or rises over
recommended level



Tire Pressure Sensor

Tire pressure sensors are ideal for vehicle
diagnostics and negate the importance of
pre-drive vehicle surveys.

They monitor tire PSI so that the
manager gets an idea of the kind of
maintenance the vehicle requires.
