Geofences

Geofences (Beta) allow you to define virtual geographic areas that can be used to monitor device behavior, such as triggering alerts when a device enters or exits a specific zone.

The Geofences overview displays all existing geofences, each with a map preview and essential details such as name, shape type, and vertex count.

Geofences Overview​

The main Geofences page includes:

  • A list of all created geofences
  • A map preview representing each geofence
  • Geofence type: Polygon or Circle
  • Number of vertices (for polygon shapes)
  • Last update timestamp
  • A Create Geofence button to add new areas

Create Geofence

Creating a geofence is done through a guided, three-step process.

Step 1 — Details​

In the first step, define the geofence’s descriptive information:

  • Name* — Required identifier for the geofence
  • Color — The color used to display the area on the map
  • Description (optional) — Additional notes about the purpose or context of this area

Step 2 — Draw Geofence Area​

In this step, define the geofence boundaries on the map.

Shape Selection​

Available shapes:

  • Polygon — Custom boundaries defined by multiple points
  • Circle — A circular zone defined by a center and radius

Drawing a Circle​

To create a circular geofence:

  1. Click anywhere on the map to set the circle center.
  2. Adjust the radius using the slider above the map.
  3. The circle updates automatically as the radius changes.

Drawing a Polygon​

To create a polygon geofence:

  1. Click on the map to add the first point.
  2. Continue clicking to add additional points.
  3. Add at least three points to form a polygon.
  4. Click the first point again to close the polygon.
  5. Click Save after completing the shape.

Step 3 — Review & Save​

In the final step, review the geofence before saving:

  • Geofence Name
  • Type (Polygon or Circle)
  • Color
  • Description
  • Vertices (for polygon shapes)

Click Save to finalize and create the geofence.
