Setting up geofences
Draw a zone on the map to watch for a vehicle entering or leaving it.
What a geofence does
A geofence is a zone you draw on the map - a circle or a custom shape. Paired with an alert rule, you get notified the moment a vehicle enters or exits it.
Drawing one
- Open the Geofences page from your dashboard.
- Use the drawing tools on the map to draw a circle or a shape (polygon) around the area you care about - a depot, a customer site, a restricted zone.
- Give it a name and save it.
A geofence applies to every vehicle you currently have linked - any vehicle you add later can be linked to it too from the geofence's page.
Next step
A geofence by itself doesn't notify anyone - head to Alert Rules and create a "Vehicle enters/exits a geofence" rule pointed at it.
