I've seen these sorts of latencies on truck tracking satellite networks. Because the trucks upload timestamped records in databursts the latency isn't an issue. They're used more for accounting than anything else.
- yencabulator 4y agoNote, this service is capped to 192 byte message roughly once an hour. Even assuming driver rest period doesn't need data, is 384 bytes enough to summarize an hour of driving?
- jandrese 4y agoA lat/long for every 5 minutes would work out to exactly 192 bytes, and you could definitely compress this by storing only delta values with fewer bits. But really you would probably drop it back to every 10 minutes so you could add in fuel level,vehicle ID, driver ID, and a few other bits of data.
