Collecting vehicle sensor data in one place for resale, insurance and fleets

Logistics and fleets9 October 2020

This episode introduces a data platform for vehicles, released by a global software vendor, that stores the readings produced by the growing number of sensors in modern cars. Two product specialists from the vendor's automotive side explain what such a platform is and why an organisation might want one.

Use cases discussed include assessing the resale value of used vehicles, supporting insurance, and managing fleets. The conversation also reflects on how strongly the automotive sector is being disrupted at present, which makes the handling of vehicle data a fast-moving subject.

Key points

  • A central store for data coming from in-vehicle sensors
  • Use cases in vehicle resale value, insurance and fleet management
  • Why automotive disruption makes vehicle data increasingly valuable
