Tips for Setting Up a Geofence

  • Use different map views: 
    • There are several ways to view the map to help you navigate and set up the best geofence, and checking each one helps ensure you set up fences right where you want them. These views include; Map view, Satellite view, Street view, Terrain, Labels, and Full Screen view. The video above shows you how to find each one.
  • Use the search bar: 
    • The search bar at the top of the map is very useful to quickly find a specific address. Just type in a location like you would in Google Maps.
  • Deleting a single point on a geofence: 
    • Miss-clicks happen when you end up with a point on a geofence you don't want.  No biggie. Simply hold your Shift key down and click on the point you want to delete to remove it.
  • Give your geofences a good name: 
    • Typing clear descriptions of your Geofence Group Name, Geofence Names, and Description can be really useful for your future self.
  • Adjust and delete your entire geofences: 
    • If you are not happy with the placement of the geofence you made, click and drag a point on the fence to adjust it, or click on the "Select Geofences to Delete" button to remove the geofence and set up a new one.
  • Update your geofences: 
    • You can add, remove, or adjust your geofences at any time, so it's a good to keep this in mind for the future.

Tips for Navigating the Geofence Map

  • Map and Terrain View:
    • In the upper-left corner, you can click on "Map," which will show you a navigation-based map view. If you hover over "Map" you have the option to check "Terrain," which will add a terrain/topical feature to the map view.
  • Satellite and Labels View:
    • In the upper left corner of the map, you can click on "Satellite," which will show you a satellite image-based map view. If you hover over "Satellite" you have the option to uncheck "Lables," which will remove the text labels from the map.  This is useful when drawing a geofence or trying to see the area more clearly.
  • Street View: 
    • On the right side of the map, you'll see a little yellow person.  You can click and drag that person to a road on the map that is highlighted in blue and drop him anywhere on that road.  The screen will take you to a street view, which is a great way to see a location from the ground level.  To exit Street View, simply click on the arrow pointing to the left in the upper-right corner.
  • Full Screen View: 
    • In the upper-right corner of the map is a square icon made up of corner pieces.  This will expand the map view to your full screen, allowing you to see a bigger map for easier navigation and visibility.  To exit the full screen view, simply click the icon in the upper right corner with the four inverted faceing corners.
  • 3D or Tilt Map View: 
    • Right below the full screen view icon is an icon with four solid squares. This gives you a tilted map or 3D view of the map for an extra detailed visualization.
  • Zooming and Dragging Across the Map: 
    • In the lower right corner, you have your "+" and "-" buttons tozoom in and out.
    • To see parts of the map that are out of frame, simply left-click, hold, and drag the mouse to move around the map.
