Mark all your delivery locations on the map
Mark customer offices, branches and generate a detailed landmark history report with a timestamp
of each exit or entry to know if the stop was authorized or not.
Points of interest/Delivery points
Points of Interest (POIs) are useful places on a map.
Some examples include warehouses, distribution centers, delivery points, bus stops, student pickup/drop off points, service centers, labour camps, or whatever they are.
You can now plot all your business points/landmarks as Points of Interest (PoI’s).
You can even set alerts to notify you when a vehicle enters or leaves a point.
- Add a new PoI using lat-long values.
- Upload all PoIs by once.
- Add vehicle’s current location as PoI on mobile device.
Add stop points as PoI
You may often find it hard to find the exact delivery points and mark them as PoIs on map.
The good news is that the vehicle tracking system automatically process historical data and suggests PoIs based on the stop points your vehicles made.
- Delivery points or PoIs are colour coded to easily identify categories (e.g. red for school, blue for bus stops etc).
- Define larger buffer range for PoIs (10m to 100m).
- Mark unauthorized to enter locations as ‘No-go zones’.
- Get alerts
Create geofence or territorial fence
A geofence or territorial fence is a virtual line that marks the perimeter of an area. Geofences can help fleet owners like you track your vehicles as they operate within specific borders.
- Ensures that your trucks are operating within specific borders.
- Receive alerts when a vehicle enters or exits a territory.
- Help you with data on vehicles moving in/out of the perimeter fence.
Route fence
Route fence in Geographic Information System (GIS) is a virtual line or path drawn in the map to show a transportation route.
Route fence in fleet management software is used to assign predefined routes to vehicles.
A fleet management software can be used to configure and generate alerts/notifications in case a deviation happens in the predefined route.
Route fence helps in;
- Scheduling a trip well in advance.
- Cutdown transportation cost.
- Improving dispatch.
- Marking via points or delivery locations.
Create park fence
A park fence is a virtual line that forms an imaginary barrier around the perimeter of your car when it’s parked.
Just imagine a situation where your truck is parked in a remote location with valuable goods in it. Park fence is intended to make the vehicle safe from being stolen. If the system detects the vehicle moving out of the fence, it will immediately send an alert.
- Create a park fence for your vehicles.
- Secure your vehicle and valuable assets.
- Get notified in the event of vehicle movement.
Find nearby vehicles/assets using PoI
Ever imagined a situation where one of your fleets stopped abruptly and your driver was helpless to do something on his own? “Find nearby assets” feature can be of great help in a situation like this.
You could search for a PoI or a place on the Map that you wish to set as a point, to find the vehicles around.
- Search for vehicles using a saved PoI/Zone.
- Set a desired radius (kms) to search for the nearby vehicles.
- Feature is of great help in emergency situations.
Setting a proximity location
Assume you manage a number of fleets with different delivery locations. It would be great if you get notified every time your vehicle reaches the delivery location or a proximity point.
To achieve this easily, just create proximity points, selecting a desired buffer (metre) on the map and configure alerts to receive notifications.
Once configured, an alert will be triggered when a vehicle enters into the buffer zone drawn over a point.
- Option to set buffer metre for the proximity point.
- Receive alerts on the web.
- Receive alert every time the vehicle enters the proximity point.
Suggested PoIs
Isn’t it amazing to be presented with a list of important points of interest (PoIs) based on the historical journey of your trucks? And how about receiving an alert each time one passes by such a location?
This tool would allow you to identify and mark places of potential interest. A PoI could be your office locations, warehouses, delivery points, pickup/drop-off points, project sites etc.
- Suggestions based on the frequency of visits and other criteria.
- Set spot fence alerts.
- Generate reports based on saved PoI.
- Saves time in sorting out frequently visited locations.
Reports based on PoI
Apart from the alerts you receive, AVLView lets you create and view various reports based on the Landmark/PoI marked on the map.
Advanced filter option lets you filter reports based on POI category also.
These informative reports help you analyse and Identify vehicle usage in different Landmarks and helps to have better control in assigning vehicles to different locations.
- PoI to PoI.
- Poi To Poi – Round Trip.
- Poi Visit Summary.
- Zone/PoI based Vehicle Status.
PoI to PoI report
These reports provide trip details, including each vehicle’s route and mileage between PoIs (points of interest). It gives a clear picture of your vehicles’ activities over time.
- Information on start and stop points (PoIs).
- Provide details on start time and end time.
- Details on distance travelled.
- Details on fuel consumed during the trip.
Zone/PoI based vehicle status
Status reports based on a Zone/PoI are auto generated in the platform to give you a clear picture of your vehicle’s status.
This report lets you have a clear idea of all your fleets based on PoI/Zone and provide information on status of a vehicle viz.,
- Inside/Outside a PoI/Zone.
- PoI location.
- Engine status-ON/OFF.
- Speed of the vehicle etc.
PoI visit summary
The PoI visit summary report gives an in depth detail on the visits by your vehicles in each PoI.
PoI visit summary helps in eliminating the time in filtering details of each PoI visit made by your fleets.
A PoI visit summary can provide you information on
- The PoI visited by your vehicle.
- The total number of PoI visits made by your vehicle.
- Time spent in each PoI location.
Subscribe to PoI reports
You may opt to subscribe to a PoI report to get an overview of your vehicle activities in PoI or zones for a specific time period.
Reports can be subscribed for Once, daily, weekly or monthly basis.
- Very helpful if you wish to send a report on a timely basis.
