Geofences

A geofence is a named area on the map. The system records every vehicle entry and exit, measures dwell time and in-zone speed, and raises alerts.

Zone types

Type	Purpose
Operational	A depot, yard or site — where vehicles are meant to be for work
Speed zone	An area with a speed limit; violations inside it are recorded separately
Restricted	An area vehicles should not enter, which should raise an alert

The geofence list

Open it from Manage → Geofence or at /geofences.

Column	Contents
Name	Zone name
Type	Operational, Speed zone, Restricted
Speed limit	For example "60 km/h"

Double-click opens the zone page.

The sidebar gains a Geofences list with search ("Search geofences…"), filters (All types, Speed zones, Operational, Restricted), sorting (Default, Name, Objects inside, Area) and grouping (None, Type). Each zone shows how many objects are inside right now ("3 in").

Creating a zone

Zones are drawn on the map:

1. Open Monitor → Live map.
2. In Map layers press the plus on the Geofences layer.
3. The hint reads "Draw the area on the map".
4. Click on the map to place polygon vertices. Cancel with Esc.
5. Enter a Zone name and save.

The geofence page

Reached by double-clicking a list row, from the map card, or at /geofences/:id. If the zone was deleted or is unavailable: "Geofence not found."

Key figures

Six tiles for the selected period:

Figure	Meaning
Vehicles passed	How many distinct vehicles crossed the zone
Avg dwell	How long a vehicle stays inside on average
Peak occupancy	The largest number of vehicles inside at once
Avg speed inside	Average speed across all passes
Alerts triggered	How many times the zone raised an alert
Longest visit	The record dwell time

Live occupancy

The Live occupancy block shows how many vehicles are inside now and how many entered today, with an update timestamp ("updated 12:42"). Beside it sit the Today · entries and Today · exits counters.

General

Zone attributes:

• Type — operational, speed zone, restricted;
• Group — a free-form grouping of zones;
• Area and Perimeter;
• Speed limit — applies to speed zones;
• Schedule — when the zone's rules are in force;
• Created and Created by.

Zone colour

The Zone colour palette sets how the zone is drawn on the map. Besides the presets there is a Custom colour. Colour coding makes it easy to tell depots, restricted areas and speed zones apart at a glance.

Alert rules

The Alert rules block decides what the system reports for this zone: entry, exit, overspeed inside, dwell time exceeded. Delivery channels are configured in Notifications.

Map view

The Map view block shows the zone itself, subtitled along the lines of "2.4 km² · 6.1 km perimeter · 12 vertices". Geometry editing starts from here too.

Crossings

The entry and exit log for the selected period:

Column	Contents
In	Time of entry
Out	Time of exit; empty while the vehicle is still inside
Dwell	Visit duration

The summary above the table reads "48 crossings · 3 still inside". Rows are marked Inside (the vehicle has not left) or Passed. At the bottom sit Total and Longest. With no crossings: "No crossings in the selected range."

Statistics

The Statistics block ("Traffic & dwell") contains:

• Vehicles passed · by hour — a bar chart across the hours of the day with a peak marker. The bar tooltip reads "14:00 — 23 vehicles".
• Top vehicles · by passes — which vehicles visit the zone most often.

Analytics across all zones

Cross-zone reports live on the Geofence analytics screen: crossings, dwell, alerts, speed compliance and overspeed severity.

Typical workflows

Control site access. Draw an operational zone around the yard boundary, turn on entry and exit rules, and subscribe to the alerts. Read the daily record in the Crossings block.

Enforce a speed limit on a stretch of road. Create a speed zone and set its Speed limit. Violations appear in the Alerts triggered figure and in the Speed compliance report.

Find vehicles that got stuck. On the zone page sort Crossings by the Dwell column: unusually long visits usually mean idle time or a forgotten tracker.

Find the busiest zones. Open Geofence analytics and the Busiest zones chart, which shows each zone's share of crossings.
