Overview

This project showcases a live dashboard created using Python, Samsara APIs, and webhooks. It provides real-time data visualization for transportation teams, enhancing operational efficiency.

Key Features

Activity Log: Displays driver actions, such as signing in and out, as well as geofence entry and exit times.

Geofence Monitoring: Tracks how long drivers remain in specific geofences, with durations automatically calculated and sorted.

Driver Telemetry: Shows real-time driving data, including speed and driver assignments.

Voice Notifications: Alerts the team of key events with spoken updates for seamless communication.

How It Works

The dashboard leverages Samsara webhooks to capture real-time data and Python to process and visualize this information:

Webhooks trigger when a driver interacts with Samsara or enters/exits a geofence.

Data is processed to calculate durations, driver activity, and telemetry insights.

Notifications are generated in real time, with voice alerts enhancing team awareness.

Impact

This tool has streamlined our team's workflow, providing actionable insights and improving communication with intuitive voice notifications. It's a testament to the power of APIs and real-time data.
