Automated Vehicle Locator

CSC's Automated Vehicle Locator (AVL) systems use satellite and land communications to display each vehicle's location, status, heading, and speed on the computer's screen.

The AVL is integrated with the CAD system and connects to conventional radio systems to provide dispatchers with critical information in real time.

The benefits of automated vehicle locators include:

  • Greater officer safety
  • Improved asset management
  • More efficient force deployment
  • Effective routing to vehicles to emergencies
