How to use Safe Zones - BETA

Accessing Safe Zones

Safe Zones are intended to be self-managed by the user but may also be configured by an Admin.
To access the Safe Zones menu, navigate to Manage > Users > Safe zones.

Managing Zones

From the main Safe Zones dashboard, you can view all currently configured zones.

Available actions from the main menu include:

• Test Location: Simulate zone detection accuracy (requires configured zones).
• Enable/Disable: Toggle zones on or off without needing to permanently delete them.
• Edit: Modify the boundaries, names, or descriptions of existing zones.
• Delete: Permanently remove a zone from your user account.

Adding and Configuring Zones

Zones consist of the following elements:

• Name (optional)
• Description (optional)
• Areas: The geographic boundaries of your zone. A single zone can contain multiple disjointed (separated) areas.

Defining and Drawing Areas

Click + Add an area to begin mapping your zone. You may optionally assign a name to each individual area.

• Placing Vertices: Click on the map to place a vertex, which acts as a corner for your area.
• Minimum Requirements: An area must consist of at least 3 vertices (forming a triangle or larger polygon).
• Closing the Area: To close the boundary, tap on your starting vertex or the most recently placed vertex.

Boundary Rules

• No Overlapping: Areas cannot overlap with other areas, regardless of whether they belong to the same zone or different ones.
• Edge Snapping: To help you create precise boundaries, area edges will automatically snap to the edges of neighboring areas.
