Places versus Zones
Places are geofences shown as circles on the map that can operate from 25m/82ft to 300m/984ft.
Zones are highlighted areas shown as polygons on the map that can be custom sized to cover larger, more irregular areas.
When creating a Job, you have the option to add the Place as the address. This is useful when the Job is scheduled to occur at a particular location where it is frequently visited.
If you want to highlight an area on the Worker’s map and receive check-ins when they enter it, you can add the Zone to the Job under Linked Zones in Attachments.
Both Places and Zones can facilitate automatic tracking and alert notifications when team members enter or leave specific locations or areas.
