5 Trimble Transportation Video Intelligence Considerations triggering events that may not previously have been available or were flat-out wrong. Paired with a Video Intelligence solution, this data provides a much more comprehensive look at a driver’s behaviors and risk. Another consideration is how many frames per second are recorded by the video solution. Lower resolution cameras that only record four frames per second, for example, will produce video with “hops” in the image, potentially missing the event that triggered the recording in the first place. Trimble Video Intelligence solution provides a clear view of the event at 12 seconds per frame. Saddle Creek Transportation in Lakeland, Florida, is one of the many fleets utilizing the Trimble Video Intelligence solution. Watch the video to learn more about how the solution has improved the fleet’s bottom line and safety coaching. Many companies have chosen to repurpose video triggering software that was originally designed for taxicabs or transit buses. While the fundamentals of the applications are similar, the triggers and scenarios within the trucking industry are vastly different. Ultimately these companies usually end up with an excess of triggered footage to sift through, which is typically outsourced to someone outside of the United States with little contextual understanding of appropriate driving behaviors. Trimble systems are designed specifically for the trucking industry, offering only the relevant data needed based on a company’s defined goals. Local safety managers who know their roads and drivers are able to quickly evaluate the information using appropriate context for the case. In fact, Trimble clients have been able to cut down their video review time by 60 to 70 percent in some cases, saving time and money. One of the most important considerations fleets should keep in mind when selecting a video solution is finding an end-to-end solution that integrates with a telematics solution that plugs directly into the truck’s electronic control module (ECM). Telematics solutions that track violations using GPS and G-force data tend to be fraught with lag times and inaccuracies. However, data that comes directly from the rig’s ECM is much more precise and can provide context around Considerations for Selecting a Solution Trimble clients have been able to cut down their video review time by 60 to 70% in some cases, saving time and money.
