Machine Map¶

The Machine Map widget allows users to view machines in their organization on a map and grouped in clusters separate from the rest of the fleet. A group of machines can also be selected to be displayed on the map.

Tip

Weather and Map overlay features are available with the Weather Forecasts and Overlay.

Configuration¶

Configure the widget and place it on the Organization Dashboard by following the steps below:

It is highly recommended to adapt a Machine Page (Model Dashboard) centrally via the Machine Page Layout. If you need to configure the Machine Page for the selected machine only, proceed as follows:

In the selected Machine Page, select Manage Layout > Add widgets.
Select the desired widget. A preview will be shown.
Click Apply. This forwards you to the widget configuration dialog with the options described below.

If you need to adapt the Organization Dashboard, select the desired dashboard configuration and click Edit > Add to open the widgets catalog, see also Add Widgets to the Organization Dashboard.

Sample¶

Suggested Usage of the Machine Map Widget: Overview of the distribution and position of the machines.

The map shows clusters of machines. A cluster icon represents many machines which are in close geographical proximity.
When zooming-in, bigger clusters are broken down into smaller ones until it shows the individual machines on the map.
When clicking a machine on the map, a pop-up will be displayed with detailed information, see Machines Overview.
