Automated Vehicle Location

Automated Vehicle Location (AVL) is technology that tracks the real-time position of vehicles, like buses or trucks, typically using GPS or other satellite systems. This information is transmitted to a central system, allowing organizations to monitor vehicle movements, optimize routes, and improve scheduling. AVL enhances operational efficiency, safety, and customer service by providing accurate location data, enabling better decision-making, and offering real-time updates to both operators and passengers. It’s a vital tool in modern transportation management, ensuring vehicles are tracked precisely without manual effort.
