A method of collecting data in a vehicle includes receiving sensor data from at least one sensor. The method further includes determining whether one or more predetermined conditions are satisfied, wherein the one or more predetermined conditions relate to a rule for collecting sensor data. The method further includes storing the sensor data in a non-volatile memory (NVM) structure in response to a determination that at least one of the one or more predetermined conditions is satisfied. The method further includes storing the sensor data in a volatile memory (VM) structure in response to a determination that none of the one or more predetermined conditions are satisfied.

In-vehicle system having volatile and non-volatile storage and method of using

A method of requesting data from a vehicle includes determining a capability of an in-vehicle system, wherein the capability includes at least one of processing capabilities, memory capabilities or sensor capabilities. The method further includes receiving a rule, wherein the rule comprises a data collection request. The method further includes determining whether the capability of the in-vehicle system is able to satisfy the data collection request. The method further includes discarding the rule in response to a determination that the capability of the in-vehicle system is not able to satisfy the data collection request.

In-vehicle capability determining system and method of using

A method of in-vehicle data collection includes determining whether a first rule of a plurality of rules overlaps with any other of the plurality of rules. The method further includes identifying overlapping data collection data in response to determining that the first rule overlaps with at least one other rule of the plurality of rules. The method further includes collecting data associated with the first rule in response to detection of a trigger event. The method further includes storing a single copy of the overlapping data collection data regardless of a number of the plurality of rules that overlap with the first rule.
