ABSTRACT A system is disclosed for identifying the location of a vehicle, assemblying data related to vehicle performance and correlating the assembled data with vehicle location. From the correlation of data and location, a data base is generated that provides information for monitoring performance of the vehicle, reporting irregularities in the performance and generating control signals for commanding vehicle movement. The system comprises a plurality of signposts located at intended destinations of a vehicle, wherein each signpost is characterized by indicia that are distinctive to the associated destination. On board each vehicle is a device for detecting a signpost when the vehicle is within a predetermined proximity of it. The device generates data indicative of the location of the vehicle in response to detection of a signpost. Also on board each vehicle are sensors for collecting and recording data indicative of vehicle performance. The location and performance data are correlated to provide a data base for use by a computer in monitoring the vehicle performance, reporting irregularities in the performance and locating the vehicle and controlling the movement of the vehicle.
