Geofencing
You can now be alerted when your vehicles enter a set radius with our new geofencing feature. Set a radius of any size in any area, and receive email alerts or text notifications on your cell phone when vehicles enter or leave the designated area. This is helpful when marking regional areas, such as towns, counties, or even states.
 
Landmark Radius
With this new feature, you can create a radius between 50ft and 1000ft around a set landmark. Because postal addresses and addresses used in GPS location differ slightly, you would occasionally see a different address when a vehicle was still at a set landmark. Using this radius feature allows you to display the landmark name the entire time a vehicle is at that landmark, by choosing the size of the landmark. For example, if a landmark is a large parking lot you can set the radius to encompass the entire lot instead of the immediate area surrounding the initial landmark point.

Geofencing vs. Landmarks
So when should you use each feature?

Let's say your employees should only be working in a set county, and you want to know if they leave that area at any point. You should use geofencing, because you can select a large area to monitor.
Now let's say your employees work and live in the same general area. You have set a landmark notification for your employee's house, so you know if he is stopping home throughout the day. What if he parks around the block? The landmark radius feature will allow you to encompass the entire block so the whole area registers as his house.
