One of the more advanced features of GPS trackers is the ability to create Geofence scenarios in a real-time with triggered alerts. Geofences are designated areas or zones that can be defined on a map or as a distance from the specific location. The feature may help to comply with some pandemic lockdown measures and greatly benefit private car owners, families, corporate fleet managers and business owners. All Teltonika GPS tracker models have Geofence as a standard feature.

GPS tracking devices offer multiple additional functions that are just as useful as live tracking such as geofence zones. Geofences are '''virtual boundaries''' you draw on a digital map in Automatic Vehicle Locator (AVL) software application that is used in location-aware events and various alarms.

Geofencing can be used for setting up events and receiving notifications when a vehicle enters or leaves a predetermined area. Geofencing is critical for any person seeking to comply with introduced lockdown movement measures or modern business with a vehicle fleet. Plus, it allows the fleet managers to draw zones around customers’ sites, warehouses, and secure areas.

'''Here is how it works:''' When these geofences are crossed by a vehicle equipped with a GPS tracker (for instance, the new generation model FMM130), the vehicle owner, the fleet manager or any appointed person in charge will be warned with an ''alarm buzzer, SMS, email, LED indicator or smartphone push notification'' activated by tracker digital output (DOUT). The fact of a vehicle crossing the predefined geofence zone boundary is tracked in real-time by satellite GNSS.

Conveniently, you can choose when to generate an event – on zone entrance, on exit or both. The zone may have a circle or rectangular shape and, upon the demand, maximum allowed speed can be set up too.

It is possible to draw the Geofence area manually by selecting the Rectangle or the Circle icon on the left. That way, it is not necessary to know the exact coordinates of the wanted area, as long as it is marked on the map correctly.

  −
Once that is done, the latitude and the longitude fields will be filled in automatically.

If you wish to delete your Geofence area, you can click the "Delete geozone" button. That way, the area is deleted and the configurations made are restored to default settings.
