Live View adds 4G real-time streaming, GPS tracking and remote footage access to your school minibus camera system — giving you complete visibility of every vehicle, from any device, at any time.
Our standard camera systems record footage locally to an onboard DVR — footage that can be reviewed when needed. Live View takes this further, adding a 4G connection and GPS module that gives authorised staff real-time visibility of every vehicle in your fleet from a PC, tablet or mobile device.
Powered by CKO's secure multi-network platform, Live View operates across global networks with no dependency on a single carrier. Whether you're checking on a journey in progress, downloading footage remotely after an incident, or monitoring a fleet across multiple sites, everything is accessible through a single interface.
Live View is available as an upgrade on our Connected and Extended system tiers, for both rental and purchase customers.
Live View is designed for fleet managers, bursars, and operations staff who need to stay informed without being in the vehicle.
View any camera on any vehicle in real time from your PC or mobile. Up to 16 live streams per user, or 32 streams across two users simultaneously. No specialist equipment required — just a browser or the mobile app.
See the real-time location and speed of every vehicle on a live map. Each vehicle is identified by registration number. Track journey routes, monitor arrival times and review historical trip data.
Receive instant email notifications for geofencing breaches, hardware faults, video loss on a channel, and automatic switch to SD card recording. Stay informed without monitoring the system constantly.
Define geographic zones around your school, regular pickup areas, or any boundary that matters. Receive an alert automatically whenever a vehicle enters or leaves a defined zone — for both security and operational visibility.
Request and download footage from any camera on any vehicle without needing to physically access the DVR. Up to one month of historical footage is accessible remotely via PC or mobile app.
Change camera resolution, recording settings, date, time and alarm triggers remotely — without visiting the vehicle. Software updates are also pushed remotely. User access levels can be set so that only authorised staff can alter settings.
Manage your entire fleet from a single interface. Assign vehicles to depots or groups using their registration number. Set separate user permissions for different staff members — restrict who can view, download, or configure.
Live View operates across multiple mobile networks — not dependent on a single carrier. This ensures consistent connectivity even in areas with variable coverage, and operates across global networks for fleet managers overseeing vehicles in multiple locations.
The full Live View experience is available on mobile — live streaming, GPS tracking, footage download and alert management from your phone. The app supports the same user permission levels as the desktop software.
Our engineers install your 4G-enabled DVR and cameras at your premises in a single visit. The DVR connects to Live View via a device SIM included with the system.
Your vehicle is registered on the Live View platform using its registration number. User accounts are created for authorised staff with the appropriate access permissions.
Log in via the desktop software or mobile app. View live footage, check GPS location, set geofencing zones and configure email alerts — all from a single interface.
When an incident occurs, request footage remotely and download directly to your device. No need to locate or access the vehicle. Up to 30 days of footage is accessible at any time.
Assign different permission levels to different staff members. A business manager can access all vehicles; a form tutor might only need access to footage from a specific run. Permissions are fully configurable.
Group vehicles by depot, site or run using each vehicle's registration number as the default identifier. Manage a multi-site fleet from a single login without vehicles from different sites appearing in the same view.
Know where every vehicle is, whether it's on schedule, and whether any alerts have been triggered — all from the dashboard. Useful for bursars, fleet managers, and transport coordinators managing daily operations.
When a safeguarding concern, parental complaint, or insurance matter arises, footage is retrievable remotely within minutes — without needing the vehicle to be present or available. Critical for time-sensitive investigations.
When Live View is active, footage is transmitted remotely via 4G — this involves additional data flows beyond a standard local-storage system. As the data controller for footage captured on your vehicles, your school should ensure your ROPA and privacy notices reflect this. We provide specific GDPR guidance for Live View deployments at installation, and recommend review with your Data Protection Officer before go-live. Read our GDPR guidance for school minibus CCTV →
