Geo links
Description
Geo links can be applied across a variety of business and industrial sectors. For instance, in logistics, they can offer real-time tracking of deliveries, improving customer updates. Geo links also provide capabilities for monitoring transport conditions, such as temperature in refrigerated transport, which is crucial for perishable goods. Geo links can be set with a specified lifespan, ideal for temporary access to tracking information, like during a delivery period, after which the link automatically deactivates to ensure privacy and security. This functionality is particularly supportive for the secure transport of high-value or sensitive items, providing visibility for a limited or permanent duration.
The tool is used for displaying tracker objects on the map, with access provided by the generated link. It offers features such as link configuration, which includes setting an expiration time, geofence assignment, tracing, and additional options. Essentially, a geo link is a URL automatically generated by the platform when creating a geo link instance. Through this link, end users can gain temporary or permanent access to the map interface, vehicle options, and more.
Here is an example of generated geo link URL:

A geo link can be associated with multiple trackers, and these trackers will be indicated on the map using the generated link. There are several options and attributes that can be specified for a particular tracker or for the whole geo link, such as the map, overridden object label, tracker attributes (speed, address, etc.), and others.
