# Asset Data Display: Ten Vehicle Metrics on One Panel in the High Point GPS Platform

The High Point GPS platform holds hundreds of data points per vehicle, spread across trips, engine data, exceptions and reports. Asset Data Display puts up to ten of them — fuel level, speed, engine hours, odometer, battery, temperature, whatever the fleet chooses — on a single panel per vehicle, so a dispatcher or a mechanic reads the state of a unit at a glance.

## Too Much Data, Spread Out

A GPS tracking device reports a great deal: position, speed, fuel level, odometer, engine hours, coolant temperature, battery voltage, seat belt, state of charge on an EV, and whatever IOX sensors add. In the High Point GPS platform each of those lives in the place that makes sense for reporting — engine data here, trips there, exceptions elsewhere — which is right for analysis and slow for the person who just wants to know whether unit 14 has fuel and is running. Asset Data Display is an add-on library add-in that answers that on one panel.

## What It Shows

The fleet picks up to ten metrics per vehicle or per group, and the panel shows the latest value of each, updated as the device reports. A dispatcher's panel might carry location, speed, fuel and driver; a mechanic's might carry engine hours, odometer, coolant temperature, battery voltage and active faults; a cold-chain manager's might carry reefer temperature and door state from the IOX sensors. Values that cross a threshold change colour, so the panel doubles as a status board.

## Who Uses It

Dispatch desks that watch a group of vehicles all day and want the state without opening each one. Shop supervisors deciding which unit to pull in next. Equipment fleets watching engine hours and fuel on machines at remote sites. Anyone who has built a spreadsheet of readings by hand and would rather the platform did it.

## Example Panels by Role

The add-in earns its place when each role gets its own ten metrics rather than one shared panel. The examples below are the configurations High Point GPS most often sets up, and each takes a few minutes to change once the fleet sees what it actually watches.

| Role | Metrics on the panel |
| --- | --- |
| Dispatcher | Location, speed, driver, fuel level, next stop ETA, ignition state |
| Shop supervisor | Engine hours, odometer, coolant temperature, battery voltage, active faults, last DVIR |
| Cold-chain manager | Reefer temperature per compartment, door state, setpoint, location |
| Equipment manager | Engine hours, fuel level, last movement, location, PTO state |
| EV coordinator | State of charge, charging status, range estimate, location, plug-in time |

## Setup

Installed from the add-on library into the fleet's High Point GPS platform database, with panels configured per user role. High Point GPS sets up the panels as part of deployments for fleets in Quebec, Ontario and the northeastern US, and builds custom displays where a fleet needs a metric the add-in does not offer.

## FAQ

### What is Asset Data Display?

An add-on library add-in for the High Point GPS platform that shows up to ten chosen metrics per vehicle on one panel, updated as the GPS tracking device reports.

### Which metrics can it show?

Anything the device reports: fuel, speed, odometer, engine hours, temperatures, battery, state of charge, faults and IOX sensor values.

### Can different users see different panels?

Yes. Panels are configured per role, so dispatch and the shop each see what they need.

### Does it alert?

Values that cross a threshold change colour on the panel; the platform's own rules handle notifications.

### Does it need extra hardware?

No, beyond any IOX sensors whose values the fleet wants displayed.
