Evaluation of Driving Data from Digital Tachographs

The objective of the project is to evaluate the driving data (time and speed) from a digital tachograph in order to determine the route driven by a vehicle. For this purpose, an application was developed that visualizes an interactively constructed route based on data available from the tachograph. Thus allows an immediate assessment of the route. In a missing-person case, the location of the corpse could be determined by using this approach. An automatic procedure is under developement.
