An improved system and method for defining an event based upon an object location and a user-defined zone and managing the conveyance of object location event information among computing devices where object location events are defined in terms of a condition based upon a relationship between user-defined zone information and object location information. One or more location information sources are associated with an object to provide the object location information. One or more user-defined zones are defined on a map and one or more object location events are defined. The occurrence of an object location event produces object location event information that is conveyed to users based on user identification codes. Accessibility to object location information, zone information, and object location event information is based upon an object location information access code, a zone information access code, and an object location event information access code, respectively.

1. A method for controlling conveyance of event information by an authorized user classified as an administrator by a database management system application (DBSMA) executed in one or more central or distributed servers that provide a user interface to the administrator to access an administrator user account in the DBSMA to classify a database (DB) based on corresponding one or more roles of authorized users in a company or an organization who have corresponding user accounts in the DBSMA, a first role classifying a plurality of authorized users as drivers of vehicles, the method comprising the steps of: a. using in each vehicle an electronic logging device (ELD) having a wireless communication interface with one or more networks to cause execution of a location tracking application (LTA) which periodically receives location information from a GPS device associated with an ELD ID that identifies the ELD in the DB, the LTA being configured to: i. turn a tracking mode of the ELD on and off by a driver who uses the ELD to log into a driver user account with a driver user ID and a driver password,ii. receive a sensor information from one or more sensors associated with the ELD ID that sense when a vehicle that uses the ELD is powered on,iii. record a group event information after the vehicle is powered on, the group event information indicating a period of movement and a period of non-movement of the driver as determined based on the location information received from the GPS device after the driver turns on the tracking mode, andiv. provide an ELD interface that allows the driver to edit a file stored in the ELD that contains the recorded group event information after the driver logs into the driver user account;b. using a computing device that has a communication interface with one or more wired or wireless networks to log into the administrator user account with an administrator user ID and an administrator password to access the DBSMA in order to: i. identify a group of a first vehicle and a second vehicle in the first DB by a group ID (GID), the group including authorized users identified by corresponding user IDs (UIDs) associated with the GID,ii. classify a first authorized user identified by a first UID as a first driver of the first vehicle which uses a first ELD identified by a first ELD ID associated with the GID;iii. classify a second authorized user identified by a second UID as a second driver of the second vehicle which uses a second ELD identified by a second ELD ID associated with the GID,iv. receive a first group event information indicating a period of movement and a period of non-movement of the first driver,v. receive a second group event information indicating a period of movement and a period of non-movement of the second driver, andvi. send a notification based on an information access code comprising an access list that identifies one or more recipients of the first or the second group event information such that the notification is sent only to the one or more recipients. 2. The method of claim 1, further including the step of viewing the first or second group event information on a display of the computing device. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the display is configured to display locations of the first or second vehicle en route on a map. 4. The method of claim 2, wherein the administrator specifies a plurality of zones after logging into the administrator account, the plurality of zones being displayed on a map. 5. The method of claim 1, further including the step of receiving one or messages when the first or second vehicle passes over a boundary. 6. The method of claim 1, further including the step of receiving one or more messages when a sensed measure from a sensor or a range of distance determined based on the location information is exceeded. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the administrator specifies an access privileges for a third authorized user having a third user account in the DBMSA, wherein the access privilege includes the privilege to specify (1) a sub-group in the group and (2) specify an event condition for the sub-group that is based on (a) a location of the first or second vehicle or (b) information received from a sensor. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the third authorized user controls access to information contained in the DB by the drivers after logging into the third user account. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the first vehicle is identified by a first vehicle ID (VID) and the second vehicle is identified by a second VID, and wherein the notification includes information received from a sensor associated with the first or second VID. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the information received from the sensor include speed. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the first vehicle is identified by a first vehicle ID (VID) and the second vehicle is identified by a second VID, wherein the administrator associates a zone ID with the first and second VIDs after logging into the administrator account, wherein the notification includes the zone ID. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the ELD interface allows the driver to select a stored file from a plurality of stored files before editing the file. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the ELD interface allows the driver to adjust characteristics of a displayed map. 14. The method of claim 1, further including the steps of receiving a file originated at the first or second ELD that contains (1) shipping information associated with one or more objects identified by object IDs inside the first or second vehicles or (2) shipping information associated with one or more trailers identified by trailer IDs that are attached to the first or second vehicle. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein the notification includes one or more locations of where an event occurs, the event occurring based on (1) information received from a sensor in the first or second ELD or (2) location information received from the GPS device of the first or second ELD. 16. The method of claim 1, further including the steps of classifying a third authorized user identified by a third UID in the group based on a second role in the organization or the company as a person who specifies a driver sub-group and a vehicle sub-group and associates the vehicle sub-group with the driver sub-group. 17. The method of claim 1, further receiving one or more images originated at a camera in the first or second ELD when an event that is based on information received from a sensor in the first or second ELD occurs. 18. The method of claim 1, wherein the file contains a scheduled activity of the driver that starts at a first zone and ends at a second zone. 19. The method of claim 1, wherein the first or the second group event is recorded after a specified event condition that is based on characteristics of movement of the first or second vehicle is met. 20. The method of claim 9, wherein the characteristics of movement includes the speed of the first or the second vehicle, wherein the specified event condition is met when the speed reaches or exceeds a speed limit. 21.
