How to find nearby vehicles
- Open the sidebar and select the Find Nearby tab.
- Choose how to set the location:
- By POI — search for and select one of your saved POIs. MapView lists the vehicles near it and shows the POI's buffer radius on the map.
- By map location — search for any address or place, then drag the Radius slider (1–200 km) to widen or narrow the search area.
- Read the results list. The first (closest) result is auto-selected and focused on the map.
- Select any vehicle in the list to focus it on the map and dispatch it.
What you can set
- By POI — reuses a saved place; the search area is the POI's own buffer radius.
- By map location — search any address or place, no saving required.
- Radius slider — 1 to 200 km around a map location; matching vehicles update as you drag.
- Auto-focus — the nearest match is selected and centred automatically.
