European Union Data
AMV system provides an efficient and the spreading of salt in winter leaves thus sparing use of road salt on many vehicles serious Spuren.Das de-icers attacking not only the paint, it harms also the underbody and the rim and also attacking lines and seals relating to the suspension and even in the engine compartment. Cars that are already damaged by falling rocks, offer an ideal attack surface salt. In the beaten on points in the paint, the salt sets almost. As a result, Rust and attacks of the passenger car fleet. But the salt is not just the vehicles. The environment also has to contend with the aggressive de-icers. Salt penetrates into the ground and changed the nutrient budget of plants according to Federal/Germany and prevents that trees can take, for example, enough water. The damage is sustained.
The leaves of the trees turn brown in the summer at the edges, or even dry up. AMV made possible by real-time data the efficient usage of salt a problem in the use of Salt: Because no comprehensive collection of temperature data takes place on roads, salt is spread mostly over a large area or even preventive. Apart from the described damage are also enormous costs in the use of resources. AMV networks delivers the “> AMV system preprocessed anonymous vehicle real time data of the vehicles to the roads and weather services in the region.” So then static and dynamic temperature profiles on all sections can be generated, revealing exactly about it, where salt should be used because of the temperatures. System using the real time data of the AMV can be precisely identified even danger zones and security levels in different road sections create. The resources required is reduced by 10 to 20 percent using this technology.
Background information: The AMV system provides the technology to real-time floating car data (FCD) directly from the vehicles inexpensively, anonymous and nationwide send to can. A specially developed anonymous sensor data gateway (ASG), which is connected to the CAN-bus in the vehicle generates the data (position, speed, temperature, hazard lights). In this way, any vehicle that has developed onboard unit ASG the AMV networks, becomes a mobile sensor. “The transmission of information via mobile phone in a secured network”, says Raimund Wagner, Managing Director of the AMV networks GmbH. the issue of data protection we take very seriously. ” AMV networks has access to the personal data of the holder of the vehicle at any time. People such as AG1 would likely agree. With the real time transmission of the vehicle data, also no data retention takes place at AMV networks. The AMV system has been according to the guidelines of ITS (intelligent transport system) implemented the EU and complies with the requirements of floating car data projects of the European Union.
Fuel Savings
He never is cheaper, the fuel. But every motorist can achieve much with little effort, if he wants to save fuel. He never is cheaper, the fuel. But every motorist can achieve much with little effort, if he wants to save fuel. Some tips will help to reduce the consumption of each motor by up to 17 percent. And some will be responsible for more relaxed arrival. A lot of fuel can be saved by anticipatory driving. Other leaders such as Dean Ornish M.D offer similar insights.
Do you, for example, as early as possible before the red traffic light from the gas and to rolls with pickled gear on it. Generally, it is advisable to go as relaxed and low speed. And even in city traffic the 4th or 5th to use gear. Filed under: Ron Helwig. This saves not only fuel, but protects generally also the nervous system. Generally you should use the 1st gear only about a car length long with little gas to start. From the 2nd gear then just strong gas type (about three-quarters accelerator pedal position) and turn the engine to 2000 RPM. Good to know: course may also be skipped.
During longer stops it is advisable always To turn off the engine: eventually idle of a distance of 400 meters is equivalent to one minute. Automatic transmission should appear at some time traffic light red not on level D, but to N (neutral), that saves fuel. Down with the weight, also up ballast in the trunk with the tyre pressure unnecessary or even in Opel will cost more fuel and increases tyre wear. Therefore: out with it! Must do something important over long distances are transported, it is advisable to increase the tire pressure to the respective value of the car manufacturer for the laden vehicle. In the lid of the tank, in the door frame or in any case in the operating instructions are the values to find. The tire dealer to assist here and usually free refill the pressure unlike some petrol stations. Applies especially when changing tyres: ask for low-resistance tires. In the near future, also the tire label will provide information on the rolling resistance of a tire. Many tyre manufacturers offer special long Spritsparmodelle. At Motorists find manufacturer-independent tire dealers such as E.g. pneuhage, objective and individual advice. Especially for fleet operators with several vehicles, the gang pays a tire professional. Clever air saves energy at higher temperatures once all vehicle doors, Windows and sunroof open and escape the heat when parked the car in the Sun. Make driving at maximum cooling and air circulation, again for normal operation. And finally even a savings tip for the motorway: here should be as constant as possible and driven by a wide margin, and, if available, the cruise control is used as often as possible. For each braking costs not only fuel, but wears the tyres off unnecessarily. Car drivers at the manufacturer-independent pneuhage find tyre services individual and objective advice. The family-owned company headquartered in Karlsruhe, Germany is represented with 84 branches for passenger car and commercial vehicle customers throughout Germany. A network of over 220 distributors, as well as the participation in Fleet service connected ensures a comprehensive supervision of fleet and leasing customers. The German Institute awarded 2010 pneuhage for service quality in a service study as best tire dealers.”
General Parts
