POLYGON GEOFENCING

 

As from TX-CONNECT v11.37, you can also create polygon GeoFencing objects, next to the normal circular GeoFencing objects.

 

How do I create a polygon GeoFencing?

 

Create GeoFencing

In the Map module, an additional choice menu was added to the Create GeoFencing option in the top bar:

Circle

Select Circle: Click on the map to create a circular GeoFencing around the selected map point and set the desired radius (in meters): cf. How do I create a GeoFencing

Polygon

Select Polygon: Click on the map to create a first map point and continue clicking to set every point of the polygon. Click on the first map point again to close the polygon shape. The selected polygon area will be displayed as a grey area.

  1. Name GeoZone

  2. Surface of created area in km² (max. 100 km²)

  3. Polygon GeoZone (max. 100 points)

Edit mode

After creating the GeoZone (before clicking Finish), you can still edit the GeoZone by:

        Adding a map point

        Editing a map point

        Deleting a map point

Buttons

        Remove: Remove all map points and restart creating the GeoZone.

        Finish: Save the created GeoZone and open the New GeoFencing window.

        Cancel: Close the "Create Polygon GeoFencing" window.

Add

Click the transparent map points to add extra map points between existing map points.

Edit

Move a map point by dragging it to another place with the cursor.

Delete

Right-click a map point to remove it from the map. The previous and the next map point will be automatically connected.

New GeoFencing

After clicking Finish in the Polygon GeoFencing window, the "New GeoFencing" window opens and you can configure all options in the different tab pages as you would for a standard circular GeoFencing (available tab pages depend on the selected GeoFencing type (cf. GeoFencing):

        General

        GeoZones

        Vehicles / trailers

        Warning (except for "Enforce driver logout")

        Activities (Restrictive only)
