Base Location Configuration

Base Location Configuration is a feature on our platform that allows users to define a central or primary location for their operations, such as a depot, warehouse, or headquarters. This location serves as a reference point for various functionalities, including:

  • Monitoring Movement: Track vehicle departures and arrivals relative to the base location.
  • Performance Metrics: Measure critical metrics such as the distance traveled from the base and time spent at the base location.
  • Geofence Integration: Set up geofences around the base location to streamline trip creation and monitoring while activating alerts or notifications for specific events.

This feature helps streamline operations, enhance monitoring, and improve overall fleet management.

Please Note: Base Location Configuration is available only with the Premium version of the platform.
