The Timeline section gives you an overview of your vehicles' activity, helping you see when vehicles were parked, moving or idling throughout the day.
Watch the short video below as Jamie, one of our technical support specialists, explains how to use the different Timeline views.
Viewing the Daily Timeline
In the Timeline section, you can add vehicles to display a summary of their activity throughout the day.
The daily timeline runs from midnight last night on the left to midnight tonight on the right, showing when each vehicle was parked, moving or stationary.
Hover over the different sections of the timeline to see more detail about a vehicle's activity at specific times.
Understanding Timeline Colours
The colours make it easy to identify each vehicle's activity at a glance:
Red: Parked with the ignition off.
Green: Moving.
Blue: Stationary with the ignition on.
Yellow: Idling, when the vehicle has been stationary with the ignition on for three minutes or more.
This allows you to quickly compare vehicle activity and identify periods of idling throughout the day.
Viewing the Weekly Timeline
Select Weekly Timeline to view one vehicle's activity over a seven-day period.
This gives you a broader picture of vehicle use, making it easier to identify patterns in daily activity across the week.
Using Map View
The Map View shows where your selected vehicles were located at a particular point in time.
You can adjust the time displayed using the available controls to move forwards or backwards in intervals of:
5 minutes
30 minutes
1 hour
As you change the time, the map updates to show where your vehicles were located at that point.
This is useful when you want to check where vehicles were at a specific time or compare their locations throughout the day.
Using the Harsh Heatmap
The Harsh Heatmap scans your selected vehicles' activity for potential driving behaviour concerns, including:
Harsh cornering.
Harsh acceleration.
Harsh braking.
Speeding.
The map displays these events as coloured areas, or 'clouds'. These change from blue to red as more driving behaviour events are detected in an area.
This can help you identify locations where potentially unsafe driving behaviour is more common and highlight areas to discuss with your drivers.
Summary
The Timeline feature gives you several ways to review vehicle activity, from daily and weekly timelines to vehicle locations and driving behaviour patterns. Use these views to better understand fleet activity and identify areas that may need attention.
