# How do you query real-time vehicle movement data from the Unified Logistics Interface Platform (ULIP) API database?

India's [Unified Logistics Interface Platform](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/364/interface) integrates data across FASTag, Vahan, and customs databases into a single queryable framework. Supply chain teams use [SQL analytics](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/244/sql) to identify transit bottlenecks across major freight corridors in 2026.

## Sample Freight Transit Query

The following SQL query calculates average transit delay in hours for heavy commercial vehicles traveling along national highway corridors.

```sql
-- Query average delay hours per highway corridor for commercial freight
SELECT
    corridor_id,
    -- Calculate average delay by subtracting expected transit hours from actual duration
    AVG(actual_duration_hours - expected_duration_hours) AS avg_delay_hours,
    -- Count total completed trips recorded in the log
    COUNT(trip_id) AS total_trips
FROM
    ulip_freight_logs
WHERE
    -- Filter records for the current year 2026
    entry_timestamp >= '2026-01-01'
GROUP BY
    corridor_id
HAVING
    -- Focus on corridors with significant traffic volume
    COUNT(trip_id) > 100;
```

What additional indexes or partitioning strategies should be applied to `ulip_freight_logs` to optimize queries across billions of daily vehicle ping events?
