This update improves GPS monitoring with a Street View preview on the map, more precise controls for SMS alerts, and a more reliable experience for subusers. It also expands event interpretation for GB100 trackers and corrects common tasks involving geofences, statistics, and customization.
Street View inside the GPS tracking map
The Factory IL GPS map lets users check each device's position, review route history, and relate events to a specific place. It can now display a Street View preview for the selected location whenever compatible imagery is available for the map service and area.
This visual reference helps identify entrances, buildings, intersections, or delivery points without leaving the tracking context. For example, a coordinator can review a vehicle's reported position and visually confirm whether it matches the correct facility entrance before guiding the driver.
GPS alerts by SMS with subuser permissions
Factory IL GPS alerts can notify teams about movement, geofences, speed, or sensor changes through configured channels. This release adds a dedicated privilege to control which users can configure SMS notifications.
SMS-related options are shown only when that channel is enabled for the account. The release also corrects SMS settings and sending for subusers, along with an issue that could prevent an alert from being saved with its phone number.
What is the advantage of permission-based control?
The account owner can delegate device or alert management without automatically granting access to the SMS channel. This helps separate responsibilities and keeps each capability visible only to users who can actually use it.
More reliable geofences and statistics for delegated teams
A geofence is an area drawn on the map that connects entries, exits, or dwell activity with an operation. Geofence creation by subusers and the destination of related notifications were corrected so the notice matches the authorized user performing the task.
The initial loading of statistics was also corrected. Managers can see their indicators when they enter the section without having to repeat the request manually.
Clearer search in device and user lists
Filterable lists, such as device selection, now include a search icon and helpful placeholder text. This visual guidance makes it easier to identify where to enter a name or identifier, especially when an account manages many trackers, groups, or users.
GB100 events and GoSafe communications
Factory IL GPS expanded its interpretation of events sent by devices compatible with the GB100 protocol. These events turn tracker messages into information users can review as part of their tracking workflow.
GoSafe message interpretation was also corrected. For technicians and integrators, this provides more consistent reception of locations and events supported by these protocols. Available information depends on the model, its configuration, and the data transmitted by the device.
A more consistent advanced customization experience
Advanced customization lets organizations adapt visible platform elements when providing access under their own identity. Several corrections make this experience more consistent while preserving map, alert, user, and statistics capabilities for their customers.
Technical summary for administrators and integrators
- The map includes a Street View preview for locations with compatible coverage.
- SMS alert configuration depends on a user privilege and channel availability for the account.
- Saving and sending SMS alerts from subusers were corrected.
- Geofences created by subusers now retain the proper notification context.
- GB100 events were added and GoSafe message interpretation was corrected.
- Initial statistics loading, search guidance, and advanced customization were improved.
Administrators should review each subuser's permissions and confirm that the SMS channel is configured before granting this capability. Integrators should verify model compatibility and test locations and events after installing a tracker.
Monitor locations and delegate actions with greater control
By combining GPS maps, visual context, geofences, alerts, and permissions, Factory IL GPS helps each team member work with the information and actions they need. This is useful for both monitoring centers and businesses that distribute operations among coordinators or customers.
