Geofence Visits Report:

We introduce a new report that cares about geofences visits and provides statistical information about those visits like the time elapsed, the distance traveled, the driving time, idle time inside the geofences and many other info.

Like all reports, the report is controlled by a permission from the partner account. Once your account has access to the report, you can start setting up your preferred filters and validate the data.

The report depends mainly on the “Time Inside a Geofence” alarm condition (AC) to calculate the times elapsed inside the geofences. You need to ensure creating an instance/instances of the “Time Inside a Geofence” AC as suits your needs. Once there are “overtime inside geofence” alarms for your vehicles, you’ll have data at the report output for those vehicles.

At the report input:

  • You can select a level, a vehicle, or multiple vehicles.

  • Determine the date range of your interest.

  • Select the instance(s) of the “time inside geofence” alarm condition that you want to consider its alarms at the report output

  • Select whether you want to include the alarms that started earlier than the start date that you selected at the date input and determine the maximum allowed time tolerance for the alarm start (before your start date). i.e. if you set your start date to be at 7 O’clock and you want to consider the alarms that were started after 6:30 O’clock, you need to select the option “started earlier included?” and set the time tolerance to 30 minutes.

  • Select whether you want to include the alarms that ended later than the end date that you selected at the date input and determine the maximum allowed time tolerance for the alarm end (after your end date). i.e. if you set your end date to be at 17 O’clock and you want to consider the alarms that were already started before the end date but ended during 30 minutes after the end date (17 O’clock in our example), you need to select the option “ended late included?” and set the time tolerance to 30 minutes.

  • Select what time to show in the “ignition on/off” columns. “ignition on/off” columns are intended to show the time of first/last ignition on/off events in the selected time range. However, the vehicle(s) might be already ignited before the start of the date range. On the other hand, the vehicle might be off at the end of the date range. So, in this case, it’s up to you to select what to show in those columns.

There are 3 possibilities for each event that you can depend on:

Ignition on event time: if the vehicle is already on at the date range start:

  • First event: this means the report will show the time of the first ignition on event if it appears after the start of the date range no matter when this event appears. It might appear at the beginning/middle/ or even near the end of the date range. It might not appear at all! Thus, here you insist on having the exact ignition on time, not any approximation or consideration. The report will show the time –if available- as per your selection at the input.
  • Match range: this means the report will show the start time of the selected date range as the ignition on time.
  • Ignore if already ignition on: this will leave the ignition on column empty as the user is not interested in ignition on event time in cases where the vehicles are already ignited on.

Ignition off event time: if the vehicle is already off at the date range end:

  • Last event: this means the report will show the time of last ignition off event appears during the date range no matter when this event appears. It might appear at the beginning/middle/ or near the end of the date range. The report will show the time –if available- as per your selection at the input.

  • Match range: this means the report will show the end time of the selected date range as the ignition off time.

  • ignore if no ignition off: this will leave the ignition off column empty as the user is not interested in ignition off event time in cases where the vehicles are already ignited off.

  • Aggregations:

    • Data within: choose the reference of the displayed data at the report output:

      • Geofence visits: in this case, you want to show the distance, driving time, and all other info calculated during the geofence visit (i.e. when the vehicle was inside the geofence(s))

      • Date range: in this case, you want to show the related data all over the date range, not only during the geofence visits.

    • Time inside: choose whether you want to show:

      • Sum: the total time that the vehicle(s) spent in the geofences

      • Average: the average time spent inside the geofences

      • Min: the minimum time spent inside a geofence(s). And in this case the distance, driving time, and all other displayed information are related to the resulting geofence(s).

      • Max: the maximum time spent inside a geofence(s). And in this case the distance, driving time, and all other displayed information are related to the resulting geofence(s).
