🚗 Vehicle Telemetry Analytics – Semantic Model Overview

This Power BI solution delivers a robust and scalable semantic model paired with a powerful dashboard suite to monitor, analyze, and optimize vehicle performance, health, usage, and safety. Leveraging both real-time and historical telemetry data, this model is suitable for automotive manufacturers, fleet managers, telematics providers, and mobility platforms.

The foundation of this solution is a production-grade star schema, ensuring high performance and extensibility for enterprise-level analytics.


📊 Key Capabilities

  • Real-Time Telemetry Streaming
    Monitor G-force, speed, RPM, fuel level, tire pressure, battery voltage, and more in real time.

  • Driver Behavior Insights
    Analyze driver actions including acceleration, braking, idling, safety alert events, and satisfaction scoring.

  • Vehicle Health Monitoring
    Track key metrics such as engine temperature, oil pressure, diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), and historical maintenance events.

  • Trip & Performance Analytics
    Generate trip summaries, geolocation tracking, route optimization, and fuel efficiency metrics.

  • Service & Maintenance Tracking
    Record and evaluate both scheduled and unscheduled service visits, including technician performance and resolution time.

  • Geospatial Visualization
    Visualize routes with interactive maps and playback features for historical trip data.

  • Compliance & Alerting
    Categorize alerts by severity, provide diagnostic insights, and flag predictive indicators for preemptive action.


🧠 Architecture & Design Highlights

  • Star Schema Foundation
    Built using dimensional modeling best practices for performance and clarity.

  • Real-Time Compatibility
    Supports both DirectQuery and streaming datasets for instant updates.

  • Unified Time Intelligence
    Utilizes DimDate and DimTime conformed dimensions to enable accurate time-based analytics.

  • Advanced Analytical Logic
    Includes calculated measures and KPIs via DAX, supporting complex analytical scenarios.

  • Extensibility & Integration
    Designed to integrate easily with diverse data sources, including vehicle data lakes and telematics APIs for a plug-and-play experience.


🧩 Integration Support & Streaming Data Simulation

  • Power BI Analytics Platform
    Fully compatible with the Power BI ecosystem, supporting real-time dashboards, paginated reports, and embedded analytics. The semantic model allows seamless exploration through Power BI service or Desktop, with drill-down, drill-through, and custom visuals for advanced telemetry insights.

  • Streaming Synthetic Data Generator
    A synthetic data pipeline is provided to simulate realistic vehicle telemetry and geospatial (GPS) data in real time. This includes:

    • Configurable vehicle profiles and telemetry signal ranges
    • Route simulation using live or pre-defined geospatial paths
    • Ideal for testing dashboards, training models, or validating alert logic
