SYSTEMS, DEVICES, AND METHODS FOR COMMUNICATING VEHICLE-RELATED IMAGE DATA

Multiple communication modules are used in communicating image data from an image capture device at a vehicle. Telematic data is communicated to a management server via a telematics device. An event is detected based on the telematic data. The management server requests image data from the image capture device corresponding to the event. The image capture device activates and transmits the requested image data via its own communication module in response to the request. In this way, regular, minimalistic communication is performed via the telematics device, but major data communication is performed directly by the image capture device.
