VEHICLE AND TRIP DATA NAVIGATION FOR COMMUNICATION SERVICE MONITORING USING MAP GRAPHICAL INTERFACE

Abstract:

An apparatus or system for monitoring a network communication system onboard a vehicle includes control circuitry configured to obtain location data for a plurality of vehicles within a geographic area, and generate graphical interface data representing a map of the geographic area and vehicle icons at positions on the map corresponding to respective geographic locations of associated vehicles. In response to user input associated with a vehicle icon, graphical interface data is generated representing a vehicle identifier and a trip identifier. In response to user input associated with the vehicle identifier, graphical interface data is generated representing the set of vehicle data, including communication service data for a communication service provided on the vehicle. In response to user input associated with the trip identifier, graphical interface data is generated representing the set of trip data, including communication service data related to a trip.
