Abstract
This disclosure describes vehicle route calculation methods including 'fitting' route segments between locations reported by a vehicle at different times along a route to create an overall 'fitted' route. In certain embodiments, a vehicle management system generates a vehicle management user interface that displays the “fitted” route overlaid on a map. The “fitted” route can provide more useful tracking information to an administrator compared to simply displaying direct routes between known route stops.
