At least radio contact links the individual vehicles and the central office and a plurality of users are linked to the central office via a data link and the central office is linked via one or more DMS-capable radio links with each of the vehicles to be coordinated. Furthermore, GPS-positioning signals from one or more navigation satellites can be used to establish the position of the vehicles using GPS-positioning signals.
