There are three types of geozones:

1. Round. If you select the round shape, you should set the geozone center on the map and, without releasing the mouse button, select the desired radius, and then release the mouse button.

In order to move the geozone, you should click on its center and, without releasing the mouse button, change its location. Using the point on the circle boundary of the, you can change the radius of the geozone in the same way.

2. Arbitrary. This form is designed to create a geozone of any shape with any number of points, which allows achieving high accuracy in the formation of the geozone boundary. To create a geozone, set the first point on the map. Then, clicking on the virtual geozone boundary, form the control area of ​​the required shape. To complete the form construction, click on the first point.

Each straight line consists of three points: the beginning, the end and the middle, which is designated by a point of a different color. The points are movable: you need to click on any point of the border and, without releasing the mouse button, drag it to a new location. When you move the middle point, two new straight lines are created, on which the points denoting their middle are displayed.

3. Linear. Geozones with a linear-type shape is designed to create a control zone in the form of a line to cover streets, lanes, etc.

To create a geozone, set the first point on the map. Then, clicking on the geozone virtual boundary, form a line of the required length. As is the case of the geozone arbitrary for, each straight line includes three points: the beginning, the end and the middle. You can move and delete these points in the same way.

In order to increase the geozone width, set the desired value in the additional field Geozone width. This will make the geozone more visible for a small scale map.

In order to complete the geozone construction, double-click the button on the location of the last point.

In order to change the location of the boundaries of the geozone with a linear shape, click on any point of the border and, without releasing the mouse button, drag it to a new location.

When the mouse is moved over the geozone, the tooltip displays the geozone name. Click on it to get additional information on the geozone.
