Stops Exceeding Duration
This is the stop interval setting which allows you to determine what time-interval will actually constitute
a stop, whenever the report is created. This parameter can have a profound impact on your reporting
results and is adjusted by clicking the up/down arrows in the Exceeding Duration: text box. The stop
interval can be decreased to as low as 1 minute or increased as to high as 120 minutes.
Max Speed
The Max Speed setting relates to the GPS Daily Travel Report summary only. Based on this setting,
the report calculates the amount of time the vehicle spent traveling above this speed benchmark.
The result is displayed in the Speed column of the report summary.
Target Area Deviation for Reports
This is an invisible, circular area that surrounds and extends outward from a Map Location’s fixed
GPS coordinates. Increasing or decreasing the Target Area Deviation, allows a smaller or larger
area to be included in a Map Location’s GPS coordinates. This feature is important for accurately
displaying stop locations that are in close proximity to each other. By adjusting the Target Area
Deviation as needed, you can ensure more accurate reporting results.
E
XAMPLE: A vehicle is consistently parked at a company, which has a large parking area. A Map
Location is created for the company’s location. If the Reporting Target Area for the Map Location is
set to 200 ft, then any time a vehicle is stopped within a 200 ft. radius of the Map Location’s GPS
coordinates, the report will indicate a stop was made at that company’s location.
This setting is applied to all Map Locations uniformly. When the report is created, if a stop
occurs within the Target Area Deviation of a Map Location, the Map Location’s name will be
displayed in the Location Name column of the report. This Target Area Deviation setting is
distinct from the Mapping Target Area setting.
Understanding Reporting Results
Map Locations
If a stop falls within the Target Area Deviation of a Map Location, the Map Location’s name will be
displayed in the Location Name column of the report. Depending upon Map Location placement
and the Target Area Deviation setting, it is possible for more than one Map Location to fall within
the Target Area of the same stop. In these cases, each of the Map Location names will be listed in
the report.
