Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to a fleet management computer system for assessing vehicle efficiency. According to various embodiments, the fleet management computer system is configured for receiving and assessing vehicle telematics data in order to determine an idle percentage of engine run time value representing the percentage of the vehicle's engine run time during which the vehicle's engine was idling during the one or more time periods. In addition, the fleet management computer system may be configured for assessing vehicle telematics data in order to identify segment of engine idle time and generate a graphical display indicating various attributes of the identified idle time segments. The idle time percentage and idle time segments generated by the system can be used to assess the efficiency of vehicles and/or vehicle operators in an associated fleet.

1. A method for assessing vehicle efficiency for one or more vehicles monitored by a fleet management system, the method comprising: receiving, via one or more processors of the server system, vehicle telematics data indicative of one or more vehicle dynamics for a vehicle during one or more time periods;identifying, via the one or more processors, engine idle time segments based on the vehicle telematics data, each of the identified engine idle time segments representing a period of time during which the vehicle's engine was idling;determining, via the one or more processors of the server system, the location of the vehicle when each identified engine idle time segment occurred;evaluating, via the one or more processors of the server system, the telematics data to assess vehicle efficiency; andproviding, via the one or more processors of the server system, for display via a graphical user interface in electronic communication with the server system: at least one evaluation results display indicating one or more of the identified engine idle time segments; andat least one geographical map;wherein the graphical user interface is configured for (a) enabling a user to select at least one of the one or more identified engine idle time segments indicated in the evaluation results display, and (b) in response to the user selecting the at least one of the one or more identified engine idle time segments, indicating the location of the at least one user-selected engine idle time segment on the geographical map. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein (a) the evaluation results display comprises a timeline indicating the one or more of the identified engine idle time segments according to their time of occurrence, and (b) the graphical user interface enables a user to select the at least one of the identified engine idle time segments indicated in the timeline by selecting a historical time corresponding to a particular engine idle time segment. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the graphical user interface includes a user-movable scroll bar that enables a user to select the historical time. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein (a) the timeline indicating the one or more of the identified engine idle time segments according to their time of occurrence comprises a Gantt chart and (b) the user-movable scroll bar enables a user to select the historical time in relation to the Gantt chart. 5. The method of claim 2, wherein the graphical user interface includes a data field that enables a user to select the historical time by entering a time value into the data field. 6. The method of claim 2, wherein (a) the geographical map includes a vehicle position indicator indicating the position of the vehicle and (b) the method further comprises positioning the vehicle position indicator in the geographical map such that the position of the vehicle position indicator corresponds with the historical time selected by a user. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein (a) the evaluation results display comprises a list of the one or more of the identified engine idle time segments and (b) the method further comprises receiving a selection of the at least one of the one or more identified engine idle time segments indicated in the evaluation results display. 8. The method of claim 7 further comprising determining each identified engine idle time segment's time of occurrence and duration, wherein the list indicates each of the identified engine idle time segments' time of occurrence and duration. 9. The method of claim 8 further comprising sorting the one or more of the identified engine idle time segments in the list according to time of occurrence and duration in response to user input. 10. The method of claim 1 further comprising determining, for each of the one or more of the identified engine idle time segments, a type of activity segment during which the respective engine idle time segment occurred. 11. The method of claim 10 further comprising: indicating the activity segment during which each of the one or more of the identified engine idle time segments occurred; andsorting the engine idle time segments according to activity segment in response to user input. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein the type of activity segment is selected from the group consisting of (a) start of trip segments, (b) travel segments, and (c) end of trip segments. 13. The method claim 1 further comprising: receiving user input requesting retrieval of vehicle telematics data relating to one or more user parameters;retrieving certain vehicle telematics data relating to the parameters from one or more data repositories; andloading the certain vehicle telematics data to one or more memory storage areas. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein the one or more user parameters comprise one or more parameters selected from the group consisting of (a) one or more time periods, (b) one or more specific drivers, (c) one or more specific vehicles, and (d) one or more locations. 15. The method of claim 13, wherein (a) the graphical user interface further comprises one or more menus and (b) the method further comprises: receiving the one or more user parameters selected from the one or more menus; andretrieving vehicle telematics data relating to selected parameters. 16. The method of claim 1 further comprising identifying a vehicle operator associated with each of the engine idle time segments. 17. The method of claim 1 further comprising: determining, based at least in part on the vehicle telematics data, one or more efficiency statistics for the vehicle operator; andproviding for display via the graphical display the efficiency statistics for the vehicle operator. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein the one or more efficiency statistics comprise one or more statistics selected from the group consisting of (a) total idle time, (b) idle percentage of engine runtime, (c) maximum engine idle event, and (d) total idle time per mile traveled. 19. The method of claim 18 further comprising: determining, for each of the one or more of the identified engine idle time segments, a type of activity segment during which the respective engine idle time segment occurred, wherein (a) the type of activity segment is selected from the group consisting of (i) start of trip segments, (ii) travel segments, and (iii) end of trip segments, and (b) the one or more efficiency statistics comprise one or more statistics selected from the group consisting of (i) total idle time occurring during start of trip segments, (ii) total idle time occurring during travel segments; idle time per start of trip segment event, and (iii) idle time per end of trip segment event.
