Vehicle API

2min

Introduction

A Vehicle is used to move individuals, goods/shipments, or tools from point A to B. It is composed of, at least, one engine and one trailer (except for manual/self-powered vehicles).

Vehicles can have the following configurations:

  • A structure where there is a hard-join, meaning that the engine and trailer are joined by the chassis (single-unit vehicle)
  • A structure where a tractor (engine) could have more than one trailer attached to it (multi-unit vehicle).

The Platform stores information about the specifics of a Vehicle in the Vehicle's Attributes. This includes information such as whether the Vehicle operates in the air, on the land, or on the sea and the type of fuel that the Vehicle uses, such as compressed natural gas, petrol, and electricity.
