Geofencing

GlonexTrack's geofencing engine lets you draw virtual boundaries around any location or route and trigger automated actions when vehicles enter, exit, or dwell within those zones. Three flexible zone types — radius circles, custom polygons, and route corridors — give you precise control over how boundaries are defined, from a simple 200-metre circle around a warehouse to complex multi-point polygons tracing an irregular mining concession boundary. Entry and exit detection operates in real time against the SSE telemetry stream, triggering notifications within seconds of a boundary crossing.

Configure multi-channel alerts via push notification, SMS, email, or webhook to ensure the right stakeholders are informed instantly. Combine entry and exit events with time-of-day rules to create sophisticated policies — for example, alert only when a vehicle enters a restricted zone outside business hours, or notify a client automatically when a delivery vehicle arrives at their premises. Dwell time analytics track how long each vehicle spends inside a geofence, providing granular visibility into loading dock wait times, client site service durations, and unauthorized stop patterns.

Historical dwell reports help identify operational bottlenecks and optimize scheduling around real-world ground truth rather than estimates. Route corridor monitoring creates a buffered zone around planned routes and alerts dispatchers when vehicles deviate beyond the allowed margin. This is invaluable for long-haul transport, hazardous material routing compliance, and school bus safety where route adherence is non-negotiable. Zone analytics dashboards aggregate crossing events, dwell statistics, and compliance metrics across all geofences, providing fleet-wide spatial intelligence. Delivery confirmation workflows use geofence arrival events as proof-of-presence triggers, automatically timestamping deliveries without driver intervention.

Restricted area monitoring protects sensitive sites by logging and alerting on every unauthorized approach, maintaining a complete audit trail for security and regulatory purposes.
