Cluster view

For large fleets that include many vehicles and assets, Live Map lets you view your fleet in clusters based on their location. This tells you how many vehicles and assets are located within a specific area of the map.


Click the Cluster view toggle so that when you zoom out in Live Map, your vehicles and assets are represented by a single marker labeled with a number, indicating how many vehicles are grouped together in that cluster. As you zoom in or out of the map, the vehicle and asset clusters expand or separate to show the individual vehicles within that cluster.
