SESSION OVERVIEW
The commercial world uses GPS mostly to track and monitor vehicles, but there is much more information embedded with GPS readings. However, it is not always simple to extract, because of inaccuracy of GPS. This can be largely overcome by combining knowledge of logistics operations with specialized algorithms. We will discuss the issues and illustrate with examples of measuring work-content for the United States Postal Service, some public transit systems, and for various container ports.
