Abstract

A system comprising one or more computing devices implements a vehicle information extraction service. The vehicle information extraction service enables customers to maintain a model of a fleet of vehicles and collect vehicle information from heterogenous vehicles included in the fleet, wherein the vehicles are configured with different in-vehicle communication configurations. The vehicle information extraction service automatically generates scheme packets for data collection to be sent to the heterogenous vehicles, wherein are formatted in accordance with the different respective in-vehicle communication configurations of the heterogenous vehicles, without the customer of the vehicle information extraction service having to account for these differences.
