Zones

Zones

There are different types of zones, which have different uses (Zones are also known as geo-zones or geo-fences)
Depending on the zone type, they can be created as circles, polygons, lines or points



The following zones exist
  1. Locations
  2. No Go
  3. Keep In
  4. Routes
  5. POI

Locations

Locations are meant for small areas like offices, homes etc
When a vehicle enters a location zone, this location name will override the street name in the asset menu.
If an asset is traveling up MAIN STREET, and enters into a location zone called OFFICE, the asset menu will change the address from MAIN STREET to OFFICE.
No other zone types overrides the location name like a LOCATION zone.

No Go

Every time an assets enters/exits a no go zone, an event is saved in the database
You can generate reports based on these events, you can also create alerts with optional time periods to be notified if an asset enters a no go zone at night

Keep in

A keep in zone acts in the same way as a No Go Zone

Route

Routes can be created manually or from a trip, you can be notifed about deviations from routes.
Routes are not actively monitored unless there is an alert setup.

POI

Points of interest are simply points on the map, and are for visual purposes only
 




Choose the POI option when creating:



POIs will be displayed as a marker on the map:




Some important notes about Zones:
  1. Zones that are set as inactive will not be create events 
  2. Every zone can have a contact name and contact telephone number for information purposes
  3. Every zone can be assigned to a group for organisational purposes.
  4. If you set a max speed for a zone, this will be used as the road speed limit when the device is inside the zone
  5. You can optionally set a maximum allowed time any asset can be in the zone
  6. Newly created zones could take up to 20 mins to start logging entry/exit events due to performance caching
