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.
What you need for a solution?
- Geofence solution is supported by all Teltonika devices. To show this scenario, we will be using the FMM130 model.
- The SIM card in order to receive data to your server.
- Teltonika Configurator to make the configurations for your Teltonika device.
- FOTA WEB to send the configurations to your device remotely.
Installation
Since Geofence can be used in all of Teltonika devices, it is important to follow your specific device mounting recommendations. This is because if you were to install the tracker following the instructions of a different one, your device may not work properly in the end. Also, we offer a wide range of trackers that have different connectors, some of the devices we offer are "Plug and Track" (devices that have OBD-II connectors), other may demand more wiring work to be done. The list of all Teltonika Fleet Management devices can be found here.
Configuration
1. Prerequisites:
1.1. Read through First start guide
1.2. Understanding what manual Geofence has to offer.
2. Configuration of Manual Geofence feature
Parameter ID – Parameter name GPRS settings:
- 2001 – APN
- 2002 – APN username (if there are no APN username, empty field should be left)
- 2003 – APN password (if there are no APN password, empty field should be left)
Server settings:
- 2004 – Domain
- 2005 – Port
- 2006 – Data sending protocol (0 – TCP, 1 – UDP)
After successful GPRS/SERVER settings configuration, FMM130 device will synchronize time and update records to the configured server. Time intervals and default I/O elements can be changed by using Teltonika Configurator or SMS parameters.
Manual Geofence settings:
- 20100 - Feature priority (0 - Disable, 1 - Low, 2 - High, 3 - Panic)
- 20101 - Generate Event (0 - No Event, 1 - On Exit, 2 - On Entrance, 3 - On Both)
- 20102 - Eventual Records (0 - Disable, 1 - Enable)
- 20103 - Frame Border (m)
- 20104 - Shape Type (0 - Circle, 1 - Rectangle)
- 20105 - Radius (m)
- 20106 - Coordinate Y1
- 20107 - Coordinate X1
- 20108 - Coordinate Y2
- 20109 - Coordinate X2
- 20110 - Overspeeding (0 - Disable, 1 - Enable)
- 20111 - Max allowed speed (km/h)
- 7025 - Phone Number
- 8025 - SMS Text
Note: Radius is only calculated if the chosen Shape Type is a Circle. In this example, Radius cannot be seen since the shape chosen is the Rectangle. Also, Latitude Y2 and Longitude X2 are only used when Rectangle is the chosen shape.
It is also important to mention that the map in the Manual Geofence function section has a few features as well if you wish to make some adjustments using the interface:
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.
In case there are more than one zones available, by clicking on one of them will bring up its layout details.
The last button on the interface is used to zoom in on all of the available geozones.
Quickstart: From default configuration to Geofence crossing detection in two SMS:
" setparam 2001:APN;2002:APN_username;2003:APN_password;2004:Domain;2005:Port;2006:0"
" setparam 20100:2;20101:2;20104:1;20106:latitudeY1;20107:longitudeX1;20108:latitudeY2;20109:longitudeX2"
This SMS will set up your device to report Geofence Crossing Detection scenario to the server.
Note: We're sending two instead of one configuration messages since one SMS can contain up to 160 characters. For this scenario, we exceed the maximum allowed character amount. Therefore, we split the message into two.
Parsing Geofence records
1.Prerequisites:
1.1. Open TCP/UDP port
1.2. Read Java parser first start guide
2. Parsing example:
