Determine when vehicles stop within a tagged area and how long they’ve stopped for. This is useful for keeping track of the number of hours spent at a job site or at a supplier.
A map tag is a point of interest placed on a map. Once placed, reports can be run to determine which vehicle visited and how long it was stopped within that zone.
The Map Tag can provide past stops information. i.e. stops before the Map Tag was placed on the map.

Reporting Once the map tag has been created, reporting on this map tag can be undertaken retrospectively. Data is available from the date that the AVL units are installed in any vehicles referenced in the report, or 913 days, whichever is shorter. The Map Tag Zone Report provides information on whenever a vehicle has stopped within a map tag zone for more than 2 minutes. See below for reported information. |  |
