Module 2 will introduce participants to back-end GPS tracking software (a hosted service offered as SaaS), real-time tracking, real-time report/alert automation, popular GPS tracking platforms, offered as Software as a service (SaaS) and those available for on-premises deployment.

Here participants will master how to customize and deliver user centered tracking services, how to evaluate and select the right IoT systems.

Module 4 will introduce participants to fuel-level monitoring systems and on-vehicle CAN BUS, as well as the “how” and benefits of interfacing IoT devices with on-vehicle CAN BUS.

Here participants will learn basic electronic theories, and how modern automotive electrical systems for cars, trucks, tricycles and motorbikes work.

Here participants will master how to install GPS tracking devices on cars, trucks, tricycles and motorbikes. Emphasis would be made on installation best practices.

This module will acquaint participants with the common issues they may encounter while working with GPS tracking devices, as well as how to troubleshoot and resolve such issues when they occur.

Here, participants will learn tamper-proof designs and how to deal with driver (insider) sabotage - driver (insider) sabotage is a common issue encountered by GPS tracking service providers in Nigeria. Drivers and riders hate being monitored. They have devised various means to sabotage GPS tracking systems in vehicles they “pilot”. Their fraudulent activities not only swells system maintenance and warranty costs for GPS tracking service providers, but can also lead to loss of client’s (user’s) confidence on the GPS tracking solution. Having had our fair share of drivers’ sabotage trouble, we invested our time, efforts and resources in combating tracking system sabotage by drivers.
