Creating Geo-Fences

A geo-fence is a virtual perimeter used in a real-world geographic area. Users can create a geo-fence around a specific location on a map, such as a port or a DC. Creating a geofence around a port or DC allows the system to generate arrived and departed events for GPS-tracked trucks and shipments based on the GPS position. The system determines when a vehicle enters and leaves a geo-fenced location and can create arrived and departed events based on this information.

Complete the following steps to create a geo-fence:

  1. L og in to the ONE system.

  2. Click Menus/Favs > Administration > Search Site.
