Geofence Summary Report
The Geofence Report provides detailed insights into vehicle activity within predefined geographic areas. This report helps fleet managers:
- Track entries and exits from geofenced zones.
- Monitor unauthorized or unexpected stops.
- Evaluate route adherence and optimize routing efficiency.

Scheduling a Geofence Summary Report- After generating a Geofence Summary Report, you can schedule it to run at
regular intervals (daily, weekly, or monthly):
- Scheduled reports are automatically generated and displayed under Reports - Schedules.
- To schedule a report:
- Navigate to the Reports menu and click Create/Schedule.
- If you haven’t already created a report, follow the steps above to create one.
- Click Schedule next to Create to open the scheduling window.
- Fill out the schedule template:
- Schedule Name: Automatically generated based on the frequency, but you can customize it.
- Vehicles/Groups: Select vehicles or vehicle groups for the scheduled report.
- Geofences/Locations: Choose geofences or locations to include in the report.
- Report Frequency: Select Daily, Weekly, or Monthly (one option at a time).
- Time of Report Generation: Set the time you want the report to be generated.
- Reset: Clears all configurations you’ve made.
- Preview: Allows you to see how the scheduled report will look.

How fields in the geofence report are calculatedThe fields in the Geofence Report are generated using data collected from GPS locations, accelerometer readings, and other device events. Below is a breakdown of how each field is calculated:
- Total vehicles: Displays the total number of vehicles selected when creating the report.
- Total geofences: Shows the total number of geofences selected during report creation.
- Geofences interacted with: Shows how many of the selected geofences any of the selected vehicles has interacted with, this is a subset of Total Geofences.
- Most time spent in: Identifies the geofence where a vehicle spent the
most time. This is calculated by measuring the duration between vehicle
enter and exit events for each geofence.
- Detailed information, such as total time spent, number of entries, and exits, is available in the report fields below.
- Total time in geofences: The cumulative time for each selected vehicles spent inside any selected geofence.
- Time inside: For each geofence, this field shows the total time a vehicle spent within that geofence. It is calculated as the sum of all durations between entry and exit events.
- Enter/Exit: This field counts how many times a vehicle entered and exited
a specific geofence. It is determined based on:
- Entry events: Recorded as
vehicle/geofence/*/enter
. - Exit events: Recorded as
vehicle/geofence/*/exit
. - You can view these events under Device -> Events and apply the relevant filters.
- Entry events: Recorded as
- Started: Counts how many times a vehicle started within a specific geofence.
This is based on accelerometer data detecting motion events:
- Filter:
vehicle/motion/shaking
.
- Filter:
- Stopped: Counts how many times a vehicle stopped within a specific geofence.
This is also based on accelerometer data:
- Filter:
vehicle/motion/steady
.
- Filter:
- Idling time: Displays the total time a vehicle spent idling within a
geofence. It is calculated as follows:
- Idling: The engine RPM is between 0 and a predefined idle RPM threshold (configurable per vehicle).
- Data source:
obd.rpm.value
.
- Driving time: Indicates active driving time within the geofence. This is determined when the engine RPM is higher than the idle threshold.
- Parked: Shows the total time a vehicle was parked in a geofence. It is
calculated as:
- Parked time = total time spent in the geofence - (driving time + idling time).
- Distance: Displays the total distance driven within a specific geofence. This is calculated using GPS points logged while the vehicle was inside the geofence.
note
As new report types become available, additional features and enhancements will be added to the platform. Stay tuned for updates to make the most of your AutoPi Cloud Reports.
