Auto-Discovery of Locations and Site Statuses

For clients using auto-discovery:

As your vehicles make stops at various job sites, these locations will be proposed in Kahi as Unconfirmed Job Sites. The coordinates of the vehicle are reverse geocoded to the nearest address.

While most sites are discovered and proposed with a high degree of accuracy, there are several factors that may require user interaction to ensure quality data:

• poor or inaccurate GPS location due to weather conditions
• poor LTE signal to relay location
• vehicle is not parked at the job site but instead at a nearby address (e.g. driveway was blocked, required to park down the street, very large facility with multiple units etc.)
• close proximity to previous job sites, ignored sites or currently active sites

Each site has a geofence that shrinks with a site's relevance. For example, Active sites have a large radial geofence of 250m. This can cause issues when there are a number of active job sites in close proximity simultaneously, say within the confines of city blocks or neighbouring properties.

The table below shows the current dynamic geofence settings and the life-cycle of a job site:

Check the list of Unconfirmed Job Sites for nearby addresses. In each case, the remedy to the issue is as follows:

• • If there is an address nearby that has been misidentified:
    • Edit the address and change the name to the correct site
    • Confirm the address
      • If the address is NOT a job site, it should be "Ignored"
  • If there is no nearby job site proposed, create the site manually (see below) by entering the address of the site
    • The assets that are within the geofence of the address will automatically "snap" to the site within a few minutes
