Getting Started with Tracking

The Tracking page is used to view the location and condition of Objects in your Organization on a map. From this page, you can find Objects, focus your monitoring, follow their movement, and open the latest information received from GPS Devices.

​

Opening the Tracking Page

Select Tracking from the main Jitra menu. The Tracking page consists of:

• the Objects panel on the left
• the Tracking map as the main area

All Objects remain visible on the map unless the Object display is hidden.

​

Finding an Object

Use Search object… to find an Object by its name or label. To narrow the list, click Filter by Status and select Moving, Stopped, Idle, or Offline. Search and filters help you find Objects in the panel; other Objects can remain visible on the map.

​

Focusing Objects on the Map

Select one or more Objects that you want to monitor. The checkboxes in the Objects panel determine which Objects are focused; they do not hide other Objects from the map. After selecting an Object:

• the map adjusts its visible area
• the selected Object becomes the monitoring focus
• its marker movement is displayed more smoothly
• other Objects remain visible on the map

To keep following its movement, click Follow selected object at the top of the Objects panel.

​

Viewing Object Details

Click an Object marker on the map or the information button on an Object row to open its details panel. The panel shows the latest available information, such as the last location, update time, status duration, odometer, engine hours, and other telemetry.

​

Showing Geofences, Sites, and Routes

Use Show Geofences, Show Sites, or Show Routes in the upper-right corner of the map. Select the resources to display; creating and managing them is covered in the Places category.

​

Using Map Tools

The tools on the right side of the map let you hide Object markers, cluster nearby markers, measure distance or area, search for an address, control zoom, and select a map provider.

​

Understanding Real-Time Data and Offline Objects

Tracking updates automatically when Jitra receives new data. Update speed depends on the GPS Device reporting interval and connection. When an Object is Offline, the map shows the last location and information received. This location may not represent the Object’s current position.
