Practical guide
Vehicle Trip and Route Coverage for SWM Contracts
Vehicle presence is not route completion. Approved geometry, trip identity and timestamped GPS points must be compared.
Implementation checklist
Support multiple trips
Each daily trip needs a separate trip number and time window so repeated movements do not merge into one misleading route result.
Use coverage for review
Coverage reports should identify missed segments and data gaps while retaining the underlying GPS source and route assignment.
Frequently asked questions
Does GPS distance prove route coverage?
No. Distance is useful, but route coverage requires comparing GPS points with the approved route geometry.
