Displaying the planned route or area

GPS tracks and geo-regions can be used only to improve visual control.
For control through various notification channels, geo-fences and approach zones should be used.

To display GPS tracks or a geo-area, you must place this geo-data in the track storage.

The repository supports three formats: KML, GPX, and PLT. But if your track is in a different format, then you can use our online track converter, which can handle almost any existing format.

What can track display be useful for?

For example:

What are geo-areas for?

It is much easier for the operator to perceive information about where this or that object is located, if the zones where a particular object should be located are visually highlighted. For example:

In all similar situations, the use of geo-regions can give excellent results to improve control.

How to use

On the example of creating a geo-area in Google Earth (desktop application).

In Google Earth menu “Add” → “Polygon”

Select the required area and in the tab “Style, color” select the display options.

Area Opacity - the smaller the value, the more transparent the area. Use this setting to see the map below the area

Once created, right-click on the object and select “Save Place As”. We save by selecting “kml (*.kml)” as the file type.

Upload the saved KML file to the track storage.

Return to the GPS monitoring section. Hover your mouse over the track selection icon and select the desired file.
