Exclusion zones can be used to mark out high-risk areas, cultural heritage sites, or environmentally sensitive areas. SMART can be configured to automatically trigger alarms or send alerts when devices enter an Exclusion Zone.
Table #
The Exclusion Zones table shows all areas currently setup for this project.
If you need to temporarily turn off alerts for a zone, you can uncheck the Alerts Enabled box.
Creating a Zone #
To create a new exclusion zone, click the ‘+ New’ button at the top left of the table. Fill in the details in the dialog.
To start drawing an area on the map, click the ‘Draw’ button. Click each point on the map in order to make a polygon shape. Press enter or click on the first point again to finish the area. Once the area has been drawn, press ‘Create’ to finish your new exclusion zone.
Exclusion zones can also be created through the drawing map tools.
Breach Alerts #
SMART can be configured. See the Alert Management tab in SMART to configure who is subscribed to notifications for exclusion zone breaches.
Breach History #
A comprehensive record of exclusion zone breaches can be found in the Exclusion Logs tab.
Exclusion Rules #
If you only want certain types of resources to trigger alerts, you can configure more complex rules for a zone.
Zones with multiple rules will be coloured on the map with their highest active severity.
Alarm Buzzer #
Certain SMART tracking devices have an in-built alarm. If these devices breach an exclusion zone, the alarm will be triggered. This produces an audible warning to notify the worker that they need to exit the area.
