Vehicle filter monitoring systems and methods

A filter monitoring system comprising:

• a filter sensor device, wherein the filter sensor device is configured to generate data reflecting a filter condition value of a filter;
• a geolocation circuit, wherein the geolocation circuit is configured to determine a geolocation of a vehicle;
• and
• a system control circuit;
• wherein the system control circuit is configured to
• evaluate the filter sensor device data to determine at least one of the filter condition value and a change in the filter condition value;
• receive data relating to filter loading conditions at a plurality of geolocations;
• and
• generate a recommended vehicle route based on a starting geolocation, an ending geolocation, and the filter loading conditions at geolocations along possible routes between the starting geolocation and the ending geolocation.

A vehicle fleet monitoring system comprising:

• a filter status controller, wherein the filter status controller is configured to receive data reflecting a filter restriction value of a filter of each vehicle in a fleet;
• and
• a control circuit;
• wherein the control circuit is configured to
• generate or receive local contaminant concentration values at the geolocation of each vehicle in the fleet;
• and
• generate a work order for filter maintenance for fleet vehicles based on local contaminant concentration values at each geolocation visited by the fleet vehicles and/or check inventory for a recommended filter and order or initiate an order for the same if not found in inventory.
