models/telemetry
A standard point of vehicle telemetry. References to latitude and longitude imply coordinates encoded in the [WGS 84 (EPSG:4326)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Geodetic_System) standard GPS or GNSS projection expressed as [Decimal Degrees](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_degrees).
Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| device_id | object | A unique device ID in UUID format. |
| provider_id | object | A UUID for the Provider, unique within MDS. See MDS [provider list](https://github.com/openmobilityfoundation/mobility-data-specification/blob/main/providers.csv). |
| data_provider_id | object | If different than `provider_id`, a UUID for the data solution provider managing the data feed in this endpoint. |
| telemetry_id | object | ID used for uniquely-identifying a Telemetry entry. |
| timestamp | object | Date/time that event occurred. |
| trip_ids | object | |
| journey_id | object | |
| stop_id | object | Stop that the vehicle is currently located at. |
| location | object | Telemetry position data. |
| location_type | string | |
| battery_percent | object | Percent battery charge of vehicle, expressed between 0 and 100. |
| fuel_percent | object | Percent fuel in vehicle, expressed between 0 and 100. |
| tipped_over | boolean | If detectable and known, is the device tipped over or not? |
