Using geofenced areas of interest, you can automatically monitor movement, trigger events, and generate reports based on the entry and exit of AVL units from specific areas. If you do not have specific areas of interest to monitor, then you do not need to configure these settings.

Before you begin

  • Create an AVL unit entity.
  • Create a map area. For instructions, refer to the Security Center Administrator Guide.

What you should know

Areas of interest are map areas that are configured to trigger entry and exit events when vehicles with AVL units enter or exit those areas. These events add bookmarks to video from every camera associated with the vehicle. The events can also be used to generate reports and visual graphs.

Procedure

  1. From the Config Tool home page, open the Area view task.
  2. In the entity tree, select the AVL unit of interest, and then click the Areas of interest tab.
  3. For the Receive events for option, select one of the following:
    • All areas: All area entities are geofenced areas of interest.
      Use speed threshold
      Activate this setting to trigger an event when the associated vehicle is in any area of interest and exceeds the defined speed threshold.
      Speed threshold
      The speed threshold that, when exceeded by the associated vehicle in any area of interest, triggers an event.
      ALPR filters
      (Optional) Choose to apply ALPR filters to classify the area of interest as a bus lane or bus stop. This setting is used to determine which zone of the ALPR camera is used to detect license plates while in the geofence.
    • Specific areas: Only selected area entities are geofenced areas of interest.
      NOTE: If you selected Specific areas, click to add one or more areas to the Areas of interest list.
    • No areas: No area entities are geofenced areas of interest.
  4. Click Apply.
