Galooli solution offers the user to view selected points of interest (POI) or to structure a virtual parameter within a specified geographical area (Geofence). Both POI and Geofence will appear in the map display and the user can request events that indicate the presence of the unit in or outside the desired Geofence. 

Geofence Setup

To create a Geofence, the user first needs to create a "Geofence group". The group can then be associated with the organization, cluster, or group based on the preference of the user. Units can't be associated with a Geofence group.

Management and editing of geofences are performed in the left navigation.
