This week we launched a new addition to one of Mapon reports – Stops report. Previously, You could find a summary about all Your fleet’s vehicle stops. You could select a specific data range and vehicles, and the information would be then displayed in a simple list view.

This week we added a new section to the report. It’s called “Map View”. We haven’t removed the list view as it is very useful for many of our clients, however, we felt that the report could be brought to a new level by adding a visual map section showing all the stops in customizable data range.

This can be used in many ways. Let’s look at some of the best use cases how some of our clients are already using this new map view.

Mapon has developed a new report which displays historical data about all vehicles of the fleet that were in a specific location and during a specific period of time. The territory and time period can be easily customized so this report can be used for various fleet data analysis.

The solution was initially developed for Riga City Municipal Police and has many applications. The police needed a quick and easy solution that would allow them to find out whether their vehicles had done patrolling in specific areas.

Another problem was the processing of citizen complaints about police vehicles in specific locations and time without having information about police vehicle license plate.

Requirements for these problems lead to a new report in Mapon system which can be used to track down all vehicles that have been within a specific region in a specific time interval. The usage is as simple as drawing a region on a map, selecting a date/time range and reviewing which vehicles have visited this region during the specified time period.
