Editing a Geofence
Updated:
The Editing a Geofence page allows you to update the configuration of an existing geofence. You can modify geofence details, shape, location, and category type.
Accessing the Geofence Editing Page
- Navigate to the Geofences page from the main menu.
- Locate the geofence you want to edit from the list.
- Click the Edit button next to the geofence entry.

Viewing the Geofence on the Map
- Upon opening the editing page, the map defaults to the centre of the geofence being edited with a zoomed-in view.
- The current geofence is overlaid on the map.
- You can move and adjust the geofence as needed.
- The geofence colour is adjusted based on the selected category type.

Adjusting Geofence Shape and Location
- Circle Shape
- Adjust the geofence radius and location by interacting directly with the map.
- Alternatively, manually update the Radius, Latitude, and Longitude fields to reflect changes on the map.
- Ensure the Radius field is populated for circle-shaped geofences.
- Polygon Shape
- You can add or remove vertices as needed to redefine the shape.
- The polygon must have at least 4 vertices and there is no maximum limit.
- Adjust the polygon perimeter and location directly on the map.

Navigating the Map
- Use zoom in/out controls to get a better view of the area.
- Switch between standard and satellite mad modes.
